Even worse, the Jhiyin; creatures of utter chaos who will enslave humanity to feed their insatiable appetite for souls, are plotting their return as the chains of majik that bind them slowly decay.
But for Omus Dumar these troubles are far away. Traveling the byways of the Empire on his pedlar's cart his own problems lie safely buried in the past. But even in the backwater village of Glanders he is not safe from the shades of history and Omus will soon discover that dangers beyond his wildest dreams stalk the Wyndynwood. Accompanied by a wayward mercenary and a gifted young woman he will be forced to confront the demons of his own past if they are to to survive the Jhiyin's opening gambit in a cataclysmic war for the future of the Jasmine Throne.
