A chance discovery of an old journal propels Windtracer Tela Kioni into an expedition to the depths of the Great Chasm on the far end of the Planus continent to recover a lost, and possibly lethal, relic of the Ancient Order.
It’s a race against time and the bloodthirsty Crimson Company mercenary guild to reach the relic first. Along the way, Tela will have to deal with the terrors, and her own nightmares, of the Great Chasm and the mysterious backer of the Crimson Company, a man who seeks to rebuild the Ancient Order, no matter the deadly cost.
