Imprisoned by four chains forged with might, four black dragons fly over a city, terrorizing it with their presence alone. As the girl holding them is consumed, high seer Edric finds himself faced with a dilemma: how long will the girls keep entering the realm through portals hidden in lakes of silver? How long will the chains hold the dragons before might eventually gives in? His questions go un-answered, and more are roused as two girls enter the realm instead of one, sisters in blood and spirit, blessed by magic itself just like all the girls before them. As events unfold, worlds are bound together and barriers of existence lost. Death, as unstable as it is at times like these, once more collects its own, and all the while, dragons fly, imprisoned by four enchanted strings, held by a girl tied to a high wall. Will they fly free? Or will dragonfire consume the last of the girls and leave the city in flames...
