Quote:Winter is here. but at least Wyle has plenty of company to keep him warm!

The snow is piling up in Emerald Valley, and so are Wyle's enemies. While dealing with the repair and rejuvenation of his newest vassal, Sparkling Bay, Wyle learns that two of his Appointed have been taken prisoner during what was supposed to be a simple trading route.

The Diplomat sent by King Griffin is more monster than man. He serves as an intermediary between the King and his inhuman allies. After taking up residence to the west of Emerald Valley and holding Yan and Shareese hostage, the man sends Wyle his demands.

Even the snow won't last forever. And when it ends, there are four Noble families waiting for the opportunity to ransack Emerald Valley. Funded by their King, they have artifacts, armies, and a terrible grudge.

Wyle only has a few months to free his friends, rebuild his largest ally, and grow his own strength before his greatest challenge crashes upon Emerald Valley like an avalanche.Lucky for him, he'll have a lot of help.
