Chapter One

King Drogg has made a fatal mistake. He's declared war on the Elven Step and thrown the entire Third Realm into chaos. The elves look to the fae for help, but with the beasts beginning to stir on their shores there may not be a chance to save them both. To make matters worse, traitors lie around every door...every decision bringing them closer to the end. With the four elders thrown headlong into war for the second time in a thousand years, they realize that there is much more at stake than meets the eye. To win this time, they will have to push through the hidden history of the realm and discover the darkness that lurks within. The shadows are beginning to whisper. And change can bring dangerous things.
