Rehaak, the Abrhaani Scholar, on a quest for knowledge, exiled as a Heretic, will face the Nethera alone if he can't find allies.

Isil, an older Abrhaani woman, has suffered a horrific loss and escaped abuse, leaving her scarred in body and spirit. She must bind the outcasts together and combine their skills to defeat the demonic Nethera. The trio of outcasts must join forces, find their purpose, and save Khel Braah's inhabitants. Their objective thrusts them into conflict with corrupt leaders and deadly enemies.
