The Knights have increased in number, and the peasantry of Marvenda own either Mage or Knight: but Galan desires to be of neither. The Mages will not tolerate free men, and so they go again to war, to exterminate their rivals the Knights, once merely part of the same Order of Marvenda.Calling up black lava, they not only destroy the Knights but Marvenda. The last Knight, Galan and a Mage go into the west to seek the Child concealed in spells who holds the key to the peace of Marvenda. But to unlock him, they will need a honeycomb of pure gold, the myrrh of the Underkeeper with which he annoints the Dead, and the Censer of the Franken which holds fire stolen from heaven.And when they obtain these, to pass the deciets of the Valley, the Dragon of Eld is compelled to send his heart before them like a star in the air. But at the end, the Father of Dragons waits, to consume the Child he has long hunted....

Before the Light of Christ penetrated the North, the things of the twilight reigned supreme. But the twilight is a terrible place to wander in, when undiluted by the daylight. Living stones demand blood, and streams demand life as payment for being drunk, and living hills twist into curses all wishes they grant. The Mellachantra has gathered these venda into one place to be secure in the change of the world: Fairyland. Except that land was staked out by imprisoning the kingdom of Nordomba in a glass coffin deep beneath the Cidatel.Seeking to lift the curse Death fixed on her for necromancy, Kary finds herself mired and lost in the perilous and horrible fay-country, escorted by Ordombi Gromae. And war is brewing, between the nastier and more benign elements of Fairyland, who are divided over whether to resist or adapt to the dreadful Light breaking out from the South as priests advance into the wilderness.This fourth Tale is a prequel, taking place eight hundred years before THE STONE-KING.
