Forged in Fire - (Part 5 of the Ignaius-Saga)

How will King Tanier deal with the fact that his supposedly clever plan backfired, hurting his and Variel's family alike? How will all of them recover from this, especially as Variel's father now has yet another reason to resent his son?

This is part 5 of the Ignaius-Saga.
