Ten years have passed since the enchanted Cataclysm, which decimated the two strongest mage strongholds in the universe, killed Urtho (the gryphon inventor), and banished his army. The peoples of Urtho, human and non-human alike, now reside in a metropolis set on terraces that is sculpted into the side of a dazzling white cliff that borders the Western Ocean.

At least safe, until the enigmatic Black Kings' ship shows up in their port with envoys telling the people of White Gryphon that their new home is located on the northern edge of territory that this strong kingdom has claimed. In an attempt to broker an alliance, Skandranon and his old buddy Amberdrake decide to travel back with the envoys to the Court of the Black Kings because they are desperate not to lose their hard-won home.

Skandranon and Amberdrake learn they are up against unidentified opponents who would stop at nothing, including the use of demonic Blood Magic, to destroy White Gryphon when a high ranking noble who opposes this union is discovered killed.
