Geoffrey ae'Magi, the master of illusion, is threatening to consume Aralorn's tranquil kingdom of Reth with the help of an army of undead. The evil at the heart of the ae'Magi is concealed under a spell-cast mask of royal elegance, making him both corrupt and very charming. Few people are strong enough to oppose his terrible rule, including the shapeshifting race's weapons mistress Aralorn, the dragon-blessed King Myr, and the rage-fueled Wolf.
Aralorn was taken prisoner and taken to the Archmage's castle, where she would be tortured to death unless her devoted Wolf could locate her in a labyrinth of darkness and power.
