"People die every day. Yet the folk only seem to care when people die at the hands of a villain or of a superior and darker power." ~ ~ ~ After the death of one of her patients, Heather Hawthorne's peaceful life as a medical herbalist in the city of Sedmion ends rather quickly. Dying to know why the people start to grow ill while some turn to madness since the patient's death, she lets her indiscreet curiosity take over and strolls to the crime scene, she bumps into Cassius Servodax, the second Prince of Delaryr, who is also performing an investigation. She gets dragged along and discovers that medicinal and food crops start to wilt in the neighbouring Kingdoms and hers. Because of her mishap, she ends up joining mission Black Crest with Cassius who intends to make her journey unbearable. The common goal: find the link between the illness and The Hollows, a tale many forgot out of fear. However, keep an eye on your surroundings, someone or something could be watching you. You never know what could be lurking in the shadows. ~ ~ ~ ON HIATUS
