Ireland, 1114. In an ancient land where honor and destiny entwine, a man is faced with an impossible choice: loyalty to his sovereign or the salvation of his granddaughter's future. Maelan, a seasoned warrior with the rare gift of magical camouflage, faithfully serves his chief with a bloodied blade.

But his world shatters when the headstrong girl falls under the spell of a disreputable bard and flees under cover of darkness.

With his own children lost to the ashes of time, Maelan clings to his sole remaining heir. The weight of dishonor threatens to tear his soul asunder, as the loyal guardsman grapples with the agonizing decision to abandon his chief in order to protect his family.
