While evading Lord Zar's spies in mountain paths, our heroes are waylaid by a deep darkness that plagues a simple village.
 
Here in Ike Crawford's fantasy epic, a mercenary and his apprentice traverse an ancient world full of secrets and sorcery, with a young boy as their charge, who is believed to be
a descendant of the mythic First Peoples.
 
After their kind had faded into legend, the kingdoms of men achieved great prosperity. This is when the lizardmen crawled up from the recesses of the earth to take it all for themselves, plunging the world into a 200 year-long dark age. Will Sword
and Farah be able to protect and train up the boy to deliver the world of men from its oppressors, or will the evil emperor, Lord Zar, consume the boy and reign immortal?
