After fleeing Durthia, Jhadgar has found a home in the coastal country of Veril. Yet his nights are plagued with dreams of the runner turned troll: Seruke. He realizes that the only way he will ever find peace is by destroying his old rival. With the help of his new-found companions, he travels back to Durthia and the dreaded swamp. His journey is full of perils from the beginning; a coastal bounty hunter aligns herself with a witch to bring his head in for a reward. As the bounty hunter tracks him back to Durthia, she discovers that she has scores of her own to settle.
