With broken hearts Dís and Thorin have to survive in a remorseless, cruel world. They lost everything. The two of them flee when orcs capture Moria.
They end up in a beautiful place, where they are offered shelter unexpectedly. Dís is glad she can give her kids a safe haven, but she can't set aside her crestfallen thoughts, especially not when Thorin leaves her behind to search for their father.
Again she falls in love with a man - the only one she trusts, but who doesn't fit into her world in which only misery prevails. Moreover she faces a devilish dilemma: she has to choose between the safety of her own sons and the well-being of the people that cared for her.
