About the book: 2018 / The ruler of the Duchy of Canarn is executed by order of the king. Chaos reigns in the captured capital, residents suffer from hunger and disease, and are subjected to violence by mercenary soldiers of the royal army. But still, hope remains: the Duke's children, Lord Bromvy and Lady Bronwyn, managed to avoid death. Finding himself in a hostile country, Bromvy, pursued by the servants of One God, attempts to retake his city with the help of the mysterious inhabitants of the Darkwald forest, a people of outcasts. Lady Bronwyn finds refuge in an area called the Sea of Grass, among the wounded people, but the king’s warriors are hot on her heels. And Aljenon Tear, the supreme leader of the distant northern country of Fiorlan, sends a fleet of longships to fight against the army of knights of the Red Order. The bloody fratricidal Long War begins.
