“My God is the Storm Lord, not the Clear Skies Lord.”—S’Rak

High Priest S’Rak has vanished into the woods in company with madness himself. Captain Jisten, Prince Jethain and the dark servants seek to find him before the chaos mage Sura kills his soul-bonded dragon, Scorth. It seems that fate is stacking the odds against the lovers, for no sooner have Rak and Jisten found each other, they become separated once more.
To make matters worse, Jisten finds himself endlessly reliving that one horrible incident that nearly shattered his soul, and he questions his own love for the strange creature that is the Loftoni High Priest of the Storm Lord. Can their love survive Jisten’s breaking when all the Lythadi on Ydron are attacking?
