A thousand years of deceit. A king wracked by guilt. A defeated enemy hungering for revenge.--
Fifteen-year-old Jaren Haldannon has managed to wield the mysterious magic and must now learn to develop his arcane skills. He and his friend Iselle are travelling to the city of Eidara to rescue King Aldrain Draegondor, a victim of betrayal and dark alliances.
Jaren's older sister, Morgaine, is horrified at what she has become: a twisted version of the Warwitch, tainted with the metalmagic. She vows to stop the Witch from doing further harm to those she loves.
A prisoner in his own dungeons, King Aldrain is forced to confront his failings. His family is dead, his kingdom lies in tatters and his closest friends are gone. Hopelessness, frustration, and a new danger, one born of shadow magic, threaten to push the king over the brink and plunge him into madness.
The Warwitch plots even after her defeat. She will provide the Haldannon boy with what he desires—the key to discovering the truth of the metalmagic—and then destroy him when he moves to act on the knowledge, as she is certain he must.
Loyalties of blood and honor will be tested. Ages-old deceit will be revealed. In the end, who will remain to claim mastery of the metalmagic?

The Dance of Shadows
Uelhara's tale begins in the heart of the Whispering Woods, an ancient and enigmatic forest where the veil between worlds is at its thinnest. Born to a lineage of elven guardians who protected the woods from the encroaching darkness, she was the youngest of three siblings. Her mother, an accomplished druid, taught her the sacred ways of the forest, while her father, a renowned wizard, introduced her to the arcane. As she grew, Uelhara's innate magical abilities surpassed those of her family, and she found herself drawn to the darker, more volatile aspects of her craft. Against her parents' wishes, she delved into the study of shadow magic, finding solace in its seductive embrace. Her thirst for knowledge led her to discover a hidden tome within the ruins of an ancient elven city, buried deep within the forest's heart. This grimoire, bound in the skin of a long-forgotten creature, contained spells and incantations that had been lost to time. Consumed by the power within its pages, Uelhara became a sorceress of unparalleled might. Her newfound power, however, came at a cost: she was exiled from her home and family for consorting with the very forces they had dedicated their lives to combat. For centuries, Uelhara roamed the lands, seeking to understand and master the shadowy arts she had embraced. She encountered beings of myth and legend, forged alliances with the unsavory, and battled the forces that sought to destroy her. Through her travels, she grew to appreciate the delicate balance of light and dark, and her heart softened to the plight of those who suffered at the hands of the unchecked powerful. She now wields her sorcery not just for power, but to protect the innocent and bring equilibrium to the world she once thought she could control.Complete
