For centuries, the kingdom of Iraden has been protected by the god
known as the Raven.
He watches over his territory from atop a tower in the powerful port
of Vastai. His will is enacted through the Raven's Lease, a human
ruler chosen by the god himself. His magic is sustained by the blood
sacrifice that every Lease must offer. And under the Raven's watch,
the city flourishes.
But the Raven's tower holds a secret. Its foundations conceal a dark
history that has been waiting to reveal itself. . .and to set in
motion a chain of events that could destroy Iraden forever.
