In the north, the provinces rebel against the Empire, whose authority had declined over the century. But, to the south, a boy named Fendreal, lives blissfully unaware of the conflict in his privileged life as one of the noblest of his race. However, the changing times will soon affect him as well, as he is forced on a journey to explore the lands outside his secluded life and learn that his mother may be more than she claims to be.

Alone in his mother's study, Fendrael finds a mouldy old book laying on the counter. It reeks of old paper and leather but curiosity compels him to read further. Is it fiction? Or a true story about a time long ago?

Scared and confused, a man enters a world that he is not familiar with. With no memories of his past, he tries to adapt to his new life in a desolate and hostile world. However, images flashes before him and he is not sure whether they are memories or illusions. But what he is certain of is that he needs to find the truth. Who is he? Where they? And to What purpose were they sent here?
