The Corylliens refused to die.

Despite Kavan’s purification of the ancient chapel, the controversial election of a Teren k'gdhededha in Rhidam allows the cult to persist, plaguing Elyri and Teren alike. As the death toll rises. the hunt for the elusive Anri Heward, and anyone else behind the festering anti-Elyri hatred, pushes forward.

Longing to settle into a serene life of music and family in Bhryell, the problems in Enesfel should no longer be Kavan’s concern. But Enesfel’s violence spills into Elyria on the heels of k'gdhededha Dorimyr’s unanticipated, controversial, long overdue first visit to Rhidam…a visit with the potential to destroy every step Enesfel has taken towards peace. The high-profile murder that follows reluctantly drags Kavan into a frantic pursuit through history, secrets, and shadow, to piece together the puzzle of murder before the backlash it creates rips the Faith and the Sovereignties apart, kills people he loves, or results in his own excommunication…

…or death.
