As the wheel of time ticks by after the corruption, and peace settles over Uskara, Orym Branyn must begin his journey to join his soul. All goes to plan, the ceremony, and the days following. Until Orym and an unknown man are expelled from his tree with a message from the goddess, Mirith.
They must prevent a poison that threatens the life of Uskara, and the imprisonment of the deity Ubium, the one responsible for the Corruption and near extinction of man. But travelling North will be harder than it seems, some aren't so willing to believe in the gods, nor to help passing strangers, especially amidst those who wield magic and those who hunt it. Caught up in a web of death and destruction, can they make it to the poison in time, and cure it, before all of Uskara falls?

When the Gods Wept for Durin | The Hobbit |
Long before the Quest of Erebor began, the Norns had woven a fate steeped in ruin - the fall of the Line of Durin. But fate, as the old gods know, can be challenged. Gytha, a Moss Maiden born of the deep forests and old magic, once lived among her kin in harmony with the earth. That peace was shattered when a creeping darkness swept through her homeland, leaving her clan in ruin and forcing her into exile. Guided by her gods and haunted by what she's lost, Gytha follows a path that leads her to Thorin Oakenshield and his company of dwarves. Bound now to a destiny not her own, she must wield her earth-born gifts to stand against the threads of fate itself. To save the sons of Durin, Gytha must defy the Norns, confront the darkness that destroyed her people, and risk her soul to rewrite the story of Middle-earth. A tale of fate, love, and defiance - where one maiden's grief and one dwarf's hope could change the course of Middle-earth forever.
