Ayesh knows that danger lurks in the Miritiin Mountains, and danger is just what she wants. With her beloved cities of Neah turned to dust and rubble in the goblin wars, with even their memory fading to legend, what reason does she have to go on living? She’s ready to die–as long as she goes down killing goblins.

But the Miritiin minotaurs have plans for Ayesh, plans that don’t include her death–yet. And as Ayesh becomes entangled in the inticate web of Miritiin poitics, she realizes that allies can be even deadlier than enemies.
