Shards of a Broken Crown

Though the terrifying demon threat has been vanquished and the Emerald Queen's formidable army routed, peace remains a distant dream for Midkemia. As winter's grip recedes, a new, insidious treachery emerges from the ashes of defeat. A cunning pretender, seizing control of the defeated forces, rallies the remaining ruthless warriors for a final, desperate assault on a realm left weakened and vulnerable by the preceding war. For the valiant survivors who endured the devastating onslaught and stood steadfast against overwhelming odds, the luxury of rebuilding is not yet granted. The conflict rages on, demanding continued sacrifice. At the heart of this gathering storm are Jimmy and Dash, two young noble brothers whose decisions will prove pivotal. Their actions could either secure a fragile, hard-won peace or plunge their world into an even greater catastrophe, turning their recent triumph into utter devastation.
