The Warrior's Tale
Captain Rali Emilie Antero, sister to Amalric, hero of THE FAR
KINGDOMS, and commander of an elite all-women force, the Maranon Guard,
comes from an illustrious family of traders, wizards, and adventurers.
But Rali cares little for magic, and even less for journeying. She is a
soldier, captain of the elite Maranon Guard, staunch defenders of the
majestic city of Orissa. But her family legacy is about to catch up
with her, for the Guard's latest mission is sheer suicide: a sea-going
odyssey in search of an evil master wizard – the last Archon of Lycanth – who had fled with a secret doomsday spell that could destroy all of
civilization.
Aided by the wise wizard Gamelan, Rali pursues the
vanished Archon, meanwhile uncovering within herself unexpected magical
abilities. It is Rali's greatest challenge: a desperate pursuit, raging
across the great Western Sea to the fire reefs that marked the end of
the world and beyond, to places unmarked even in legend. But only in
the uncharted territories of her own soul – and the heritage of the
Anteros – would Rali find the power to defeat the Archon and return to
Orissa in triumph.
