Terrowen Mytaldale never expected his brother Cassius, who recently returned from a three-year journey, to break Elven law and turn against his elven kin. The Elves are commanded to stay clear of the world of men, and told that any interference will only bring darkness to their people. The Elven Kingdom of Alorith has been tasked with keeping a record of the world. But when the megalomaniac Prince Cassius amasses an army to conquer Alorith and all other kingdoms, his brother Terrowen must set out his own quest to save his brother, as well as the entire world. Alliances shift and the results are disastrous. Terrowen will have to determine his fate; is it worth it to save the world from his brother and try to convince Cassius to come back to the light, even if it costs his own life?
