You are a brief candle in a long night. You pass through, and we are grateful, but the blackness will take you.
Yet another village full of complaints. Daine listened, delivered all the justice she had power to give, and prepared to move on.
All in a day's work for a Knight of the Road.
Of course, some disliked her intrusion into their schemes, but they were of little concern. They had tried to stop her before and would doubtless try again.
Things change when she is charged with the protection of a simple stable boy. Shadows are gathering around those like Daine who seek to bring light, and their eyes are fixed on the boy.
Can Lady Darkhelm stand in their way? The realm needs heroes, and Daine Darkhelm may not be enough.
Book Two: Stonehand
Can you trust me, Lady Darkhelm? Maybe. Maybe not. But what choice do you really have?
As Swinford prepares for an epic siege, Daine finds her options severely limited. The City is barely defensible, her allies are increasingly unreliable and the King's forces are overwhelming.
But she is a Knight of the Road. And she has given her word the walls will hold.
As fell powers gather both within and without the City, the defenders only real hope is to survive until the arrival of the Duskstrider.
However, as time passes, and with no word of Eliud, Daine finds herself urgently looking elsewhere for salvation.
Can enemies of enemies truly be friends?
