Seventeen years have passed since the blood-soaked dawn of 1692. The "Black Sleep" that once gripped the valley has lifted, but the rising sun brings a new kind of fire to the Great Glen. In the wake of the Great Restoration, the North has tasted nearly two decades of hard-won peace-but in the Highlands of 1709, peace is a fragile bloom, easily crushed by the boots of ambitious men. As the three unified houses of McKinnon, Ragnarok, and Collin grow in influence, the eyes of a shifting Scotland turn toward their borders with envy. While the revered Rowan Tree stands tall in the courtyard, its berries ripening like drops of crimson blood, a new generation of the Wolf must find its own path through the mist. The Daughter of Shadow and Light: Gracelyn, now seventeen and a master of the healing arts, finds herself at the center of a gathering storm. As suitor clans descend upon Ragnarok Keep, she must navigate a world where ancient traditions are weapons, every alliance is a hidden blade, and every vow is a potential trap. The Heirs of the Pine: The twins, Lachlan and Elara, twelve years of age and bursting with the fire of their parents, discover that the ghosts of the past are not as dead as the legends suggest. Deep within the Whispering Woods, remnants of old enemies stir, threatening to unravel the tapestry of the three houses. The Weight of the Rowan: Alana, once the lonely healer of a Lowland manor, now stands as a Queen and Mother. She must draw upon the deepest, most guarded secrets of the Earth to protect her children from a cost she never anticipated. In a kingdom where power is as sharp as a thorn and the political landscape of 1709 shifts like sand, can love truly take root, or will the weight of a crown finally crush the spirit of the Rowan? The mountains are calling. The Gathering has begun.
