There is a storm coming.

It is not coming from the sea where I faced by brother. It gathers in the north in a kingdom that has not waged war in five centuries. A kingdom whose armies were ruthless. A kingdom that is unpredictable. A kingdom that is ruled by an unhappy marriage. A kingdom that is home to one of my few remaining relatives.

A relative who is willing to put her birthplace vulnerable to danger and destruction all for her own personal gain. A gain that will grow inside of her for nine months.

An heir for a kingdom's fall.
