Five years after the Inquisition was disbanded, Thedas believes its greatest hero has faded into history.
They are wrong.
Regalia Lavellan - former Inquisitor, Dalish elf, and bearer of ancient secrets - returns to the Free Marches seeking something she has not known since the war ended: home. But the clan she left behind has learned to live without her. Her father has long since passed, her mother has gone to Ferelden, and Regalia herself is no longer the woman who once walked beneath their trees. Her vallaslin are gone. One arm is missing. Her eyes bear the unmistakable mark of the Well of Sorrows - a reminder of a choice that can never be undone.
When Regalia follows her mother's trail south, what begins as a quiet reunion soon draws her into whispers of corruption spreading through the Chantry. In Orlais, faith has become a weapon, and devotion masks ambition. A secret plot moves in the shadows - one that threatens the life of Divine Victoria herself.
Without an army, without a title, and unwilling to return to the light, Regalia is forced to become something else: a watcher, a hunter, a shadow. As religious zealots and political schemers tighten their grip on Thedas, she must decide whether the world that once demanded everything from her is still worth protecting.
In a land where gods have fallen and truth is dangerous, the most powerful force left may be the one that no longer seeks a throne.
