In a world where power is limited by faith and faith is limited by nothing, Drale and Veronica are born. But it is not long before their carefree childhood is shaken by adulthood, politics, and war-and the realization that they are the only survivors left after their small country was annihilated nearly eighteen years ago. It was destroyed not simply by mere chance; the enigma that brought about its destruction now stalks the continent of Carmathesia. Peace seems a far-off possibility in a world separated by religious beliefs and still reeling from the shock of a nation being wiped off the map. After Drale meets with a wise man, Eranel, he learns if he becomes a registered citizen, he will be killed for his special talent and lineage. Meanwhile, griffins, elves, dwarves, and other men have been awaiting their maturation for years-some for the purpose of peace and others for the purpose of becoming tools for an imminent war.As boundaries are drawn and political rhetoric begins, Drale and Veronica gain control and immeasurable influence-but only time will tell if they will become corrupted by their seemingly unlimited power.
