After the events in Chesterton, the manhunt for Tomas is more intense than ever before. Marshals, knights, and armies comb the frontier seeking any trace of the most wanted fugitive in the country.

While Tomas flees, the church makes it's long-awaited moves. Rumors of a powerful weapon spread across the frontier faster than Tomas' wanted posters.

Running out of options and time, Tomas seeks aid in a country that is increasingly hostile, not just toward him, but to all hosts. Little does he know that his quest for allies will uncover secrets whose answers he has been seeking for years.

The threads of fate gather tightly around Tomas as he prepares to make his final stand against the church. But as he nears the end of his war, he begins to understand what victory might cost him.

And the price might just be too terrible to pay.
