Fleeing the wrath of Skelkra and carrying his child, Klawdia embarks upon a quest with Margan and Jeykal to rescue Sheyla from the brutal Bones pirates.
Their voyage to Pirate’s Landing is fraught with danger, and as Jeykal turns spiteful and Margan exhibits a strange dark side to his Speaker abilities, Klawdia begins to wonder just who she can rely on.
Impassable peaks and vicious, bloodthirsty nightmares still separate Klawdia from her freedom to the south, but as jealousy and anger bubble amongst erstwhile friends, she realises the worst dangers might not be ahead, but standing at her side.
