The continuation from Strigae of Relan sets us 2 years in the future, the world has started to settle and rebuild itself. Alyse has found herself with a husband, the man she met the night she killed Wilhelm and had twins with him. They took to building a farm on top of the remains of Brimhall, knocking it all down and starting anew. Religion is still present in the world and since the death of Wilhelm it's started to become overbearing, Cities fighting cities, Sacrifices, Terrorism, Riots. Alyse finds herself amongst it all, almost like she is being targeted for what she done to Wilhelm. Now she must protect her family and everything she has built.
Trouble stirs beneath the ground, random holes appearing leading to darkness, nobody dared go down them until a boy dared to go down, what will he find beneath middle-earth and will it be welcoming.
And remember, Death is never certain in Tetheon.
