Emerane and her companions narrowly escape the Cult of Uhlume and the relentless Furie, exhausted but no richer for their efforts. Going their separate ways into in the pitiless streets of Umber, they each find a dead end waiting. Now penniless, Emerane's quest to free her younger brother from debtor's prison seems more hopeless than ever. Until a possible solution comes from the most unlikely ally imaginable—the Furie himself. But his help comes with a dangerous price.
As poison slowly claims the Furie, Emerane attempts the unthinkable. With the help of the Magus's necromancy, she infiltrates the dominion of death itself. If all goes well, Emerane may be able to rescue the Furie's soul from the shores of oblivion. But if she fails, she will be claimed by Uhlume, the god of death. [Part 1 of 4]
With its new lawkeepers showing their true colors as cruel oppressors, the people of Umber rise up to resist. But they need a hero to inspire them. If Grael loses all hope, and the Furie's wound proves fatal, who is left to lead the people against the Amaraddan Guard? [Part 2 of 4]
