The Four Holds are segregated by resources, fear, and power. These mythic realms offer tales of heroes, revolutionaries, secrets, and sacrifice. In the East, a young boy murders a Prince and vows to right his wrong. The Western Crown struggles with the sudden disappearance of their King and Queen. The North suffers a deadly drought of sustenance while the South casts shadows over the motives of those closest to the Queen. In the midst of the growing tensions, a sudden sickness begins to sweep the lands and soon it is clear: no one is safe.
