Ever since he was young, Twistling has had one goal-- revenge. His need for it has consumed him until he has become the dark, twisted dragon they all said he was. His ears ring with the screams of those he has killed, his talons are the faded russet color of blood, and his horns as twisted as his heart. And finally, after fifteen years of planning, the time is almost right for his revenge. But before Twistling's nightmare of a dream can come true, his path crosses those of Vadar, Esmerelda, Fatal and Shakirana, and something in Twistling's shattered, twisted heart is changed. But that might not be enough to stop him.
