With the prophet dead, Harruq and Qurrah Tun, half bloods, must make some difficult choices, the foremost being the decision to ally themselves with a band of mercenaries outside Veldaren city. Under the flag of this new yet strained alliance, the brothers will have to withstand the machinations of divine parties working to tear them apart even as they enter into battle against a guild of powerful thieves, these matters pushing their chances of a better life that much further away.
