The island tribes have warred against its spawn for just as long—and they are losing.

Narune dreams of earning enough glory to show that he and his mother Colibrà are nothing like the Halfborn that came before them. Becoming a mystic will give him the strength he needs, but first, Narune will need to prove himself worthy in a trial of skill and honor.
