Magic is fading. The ancient races have all but vanished. Humans and dragons remain, a fragile peace offering a brief respite in their ancient struggle.
On the outskirts of human lands, twins Kai and Mara still remember the deaths of their parents, murdered at the hands of a rogue dragon when they were young. Eager to avenge their family, they've sworn fealty to the Order, a legendary group of warriors who wield the magic of the dragons' own blood against them. The problem is, that source has long since dried up, and the twins question if their true purpose has dried up with it.
Until the rumors begin...
Whispers speak of a strange sighting in the mountains, a group of hunters waylaid by a woman with inhuman qualities?her scarlet eyes burning with vengeance, her voice planting dark thoughts in the minds of men. Her arrival speaks of a new conflict, one with roots that extend far deeper than any in the Order could possibly know. And somehow, Kai and Mara seem to be at the very heart of it.
Peace will not last. Vengeance will not rest. And before all is over, blood will burn.
