Synopsis: "With the war between Turessi and the rest of the known world spinning out of control and the mists closing in, a small group heads into the heart of Turessi on the chance that they can make a difference. The armies they had attempted to gather are nowhere to be found and the Turessian armies grow stronger every day. The few free cities left have closed their gates, trying to slow the invasion from Turessi. Hope is dwindling fast. The few heroes left know that they have no chance of winning against the Turessian forces. Can six people, who everyone--including the gods--has abandoned, possibly be enough to turn the tide of war?" (publisher's blurb)
