Swistrae
It has been 10 years since The Descent and Yi Khai is now the reigning Emtine. His memories of the girl he fought alongside a decade ago are far from buried and his feelings towards her memory are volatile. Her presence had helped save Emerentine from dissolving into further chaos but before their hard-won victory could be savoured, she had disappeared...
Now she has returned but Yi Khai is already preparing to take a Emtei (female counterpart to the Emtine) will he welcome or scorn her?
Will their love survive the trials of new enemies?
For, in order to rule with prosperity he must adhere to the requirements of the age-old Emt customs; that encompass the elements the Emtan wield and their web of life.
Will Emerentine sustain its effulgence?
