Publisher's Synopsis
An ancient mystery is waiting to be discovered in the western valley, and a forbidden enemy forgotten by time lays in secret. Imagio and Invesia travel the forbidden parts of the East where ancient cities and castles had been buried for a century to discover a deadly secret lost from the Kadic War. They set out on an adventure with mysteries and enemies. Invesia is tired of her husband but especially jealous of his grand adventures throughout the East. She escapes from home, to remove herself from the stresses of her indifferent husband and the seemingly endless chores around the farm. For once, she would like to explore on her own. While hiding at the local inn, she is accompanied with her friend, Imagio. After daring to release hundreds of birds from their cages, Imagio and Invesia find themselves chased into the valley woodland by an angry mob. On their travels, they discover the ancient ruins of a forgotten kingdom, and something more insidious. The mercenary Droth have returned, and they have been robbing and killing innocent people and animals. While investigating a strange liquid that the Droth were cooking up, Invesia decides to revisit an old acquaintance, Fanillian, the alchemist that apprenticed her. Their travels take them to Slinder where they reunite with the mercenaries from Nathist. With their help, they track down the source of the evil, following the course of Slinder's escape from his pursuers many decades before. Will their adventure end as gloriously as her husband's travels? Or will they reach a deathly end to their misfortunes?
