Silvia has at last regained her crown and has thrown herself into the role of a queen. But she has also declared war against the Realm of Rohedon, leading a massive army of ill-trained men and women to fight. As they journey to war, it quickly becomes apparent that Rohedon's witches seek vengeance on the ones responsible for his death. As the tides turn dark, the presence of the gods of their world are made known and prophecies are revealed. With danger hiding around every corner of the army's march and betrayal at her back, Silvia can only hope they survive long enough to reach the war.

A short time after arriving in the city of Darkania, Silvia had the misfortune of falling under the King’s watch. Now that she’s staying at the palace, her troubles are only getting more complicated. Caught between an intense hatred for King Gregorich and her need for getting close to him for her own purposes, Silvia has to tread carefully to keep suspicion at bay. As the days pass by, she learns more and more about the man who ran her parents off the throne—including a secret about those involved in the Lordalen War which would jeopardize her kingdom. But when a servant betrays her, the identity Silvia is using as her disguise is compromised, and she is cornered by a king who is determined to have her as his own.

The Lystian army has at last reached Nillias, and Silvia pleads their case to join her in the Lordalen war. But when one of the witches reveals a critical treachery against her, she can barely grasp the full difficulty of her situation before someone very close to her disappears. Chaos ensues, and lives hang in the balance as a race against time begins. More gods start to come out of hiding, and the equilibrium of good versus evil sways heavily in their wake. With the witches now turning their full attention towards Silvia and the focus of the war onto her moving army, a deeper purpose begins to show itself. Older, darker secrets begin to emerge as the army continues its journey, and the queen’s life is in danger more than ever before…from within the very ranks of those she trusts the most.

The only life Silvia had ever known was in peaceful seclusion out in the country. But when an evil which haunted her dreams in the past returns for her, she finds that everything she's ever known has been a lie meant to protect her. Now, as she learns more of her true identity, she yearns to avenge those that loved her and take that which is hers. Risking a journey to a city unknown to her, she s thrust towards a destiny from which there is no turning back.
