In time one shall be hailed a king,another as Betrayer. Their third shall do an evil thingwhen freedom is denied her. Now Four and Five shall not survive;misfortune Six to gainby Seven s will at least untilreunion on the Plain. Though seven heroes journey forth;prepare their final stand,not all; I fear, shall chance to peerupon their journey s end. Three children will seal the fate of nations: Lorelei the rebel vixen princess of Eludoran; measured against the yardstick of her heroic brother. Malachi her sidekick and cousin; resigned to mull over a love he can never have. And exotic Pendarynn; son of a jealous sorceress driven mad by revenge. Their paths cross in Eludoran, where they find solace with each other. Little do their feuding parents suspect what s been going under their noses; a friendship the like of which has never been heard of before: One which might shatter old grudges and usher in a new age of tolerance and reason... --or bring everything crashing down around them.
