Forced out of Adelle's home, Brent is again vulnerable to the Empire of Arkania. Only Adelle's words can offer him hope -- hope that, if he can find her cousin, Lemm, he will be given respite. But will Brent actually find Lemm along the town-going road that Adelle urged him to? Or will he only find more imperials who thirst for his blood?
And if Brent does find him, will Lemm really help him?
