A new journey of discovery begins. Having finally broken with the Guild of Dawnsingers, Jerya and Railu are joined by Rodal as they strike out into the mountains. None of them have any idea what lies beyond the borders of the map, or if there are feasible passes through the high peaks. Tensions mount under the strain of the hazardous journey, and thoughts return to their former lives and friends left behind, but Jerya's determination drives them on. Each will be tested in different ways as they draw closer to unravelling the ultimate mystery of the Unsung Lands.
