Moonlight licked the face of the high king as he drew his last breath and gave into death's embrace. He was named Aengus son of Dagda, and he was beloved by his people. Under the watchful gaze of the mother goddess, Danu, he was blessed and laid to rest in the tombs of his ancestors. But dark whispers are on the winds as the Fairie Clans are without guidance. And saddest yet, Aengus was the last of his line.

Political division and disagreement run through the Clans of the Fairie. Before a new High King can be elected by the nobility, one of the two rival parties must gain the upper hand. One argues over religious freedom and the other cries for protection from an ancient threat from the North. All the while the ancient feuds the Fairie Clans themselves may threaten to escalate the situation.

In the capital of the City of Mists the Clan Chieftains gather. Secret contracts and conspiracies will rise as the nobles will do whatever is necessary to get what they wish. Each citizen has their own agenda, and each has their own way of doing it. But a history of racial prejudice, invasion and forgotten sins threatens to bring down the Kingdom.
