A reprint of an earlier version of the same novel, this story is (very loosely) based on the Role Playing Game of 'Omnifray', designed by Matthew J. West.The story takes place in 'The Shrouded Lands' where magic is hidden and superstition is rife. A young warrior, Marek z'Drubov, agrees to become the champion of the goddess of the Dawn Light, Erria, and rid the forest of Duran Fal of all the evil beings, living and undead, which infest it. Joined by Stepan, a herbalist and fellow Brother of the Order of the Leaf, Marek rides out to do Erria's bidding. From then on, his life gets very interesting.
