Tallah means to end an eternal empire and take the head of an empress. Hidden in plain sight from the very enemies who think her dead, she's licking her wounds and preparing for the next part of her plans. She may not have as much time for it as she hopes.

Sil is stuck between a past she'd rather not think on, and a future that will likely have her swinging on the end of a short rope... if she's lucky. Having escaped the empire's dungeons once, she sees no other choice but to follow her friend on the warpath in the vain hope for a calm life beyond the mission.

Vergil should be dead. Twice even! Given a second lease on life on an alien world, he finds himself in thrall to an obviously insane sorceress and her equally terrifying partner, with the ghost of a dwarven hero sharing space in his head with an AI companion that's not really good for much. Luckless in both lives so far, he has no choice but to obey his savior and maybe find out why the Eternal Empire wants their heads mounted on spikes.
