Prologue

The triple goddess speaks…..

Conflict consumes Britannia. Raiders rove across the landscape. Villages burn. Suffering is the theme. Fear for their safety paralyzes my magical servants. Anger and Vengeance blind Morgana Pendragon. Prejudice and Ignorance turn Arthur Pendragon against my path. He languishes in his own dungeon. Fate claims its prey. Three kingdoms' thrones lie in uncertain hands. One cannot tell where it can go.

Hope however has allies in its quest. Percival of Riversmore fills the Mercian void. Malodius the Lion and his dragon allies assure their mortal counterparts. The few Camelot refugees, Nemethians and Mercians collaborate for the Common Good. My priestesses, Freya and Ninane, balance their needs with my goals. Mithian of Nemeth, despite bouts of impulsiveness, stabilizes the coalition. The young Princess rises to the occasion. Best yet, she spurs Emrys out of Comfort's space.

Change is in the air. With the siege to come, it will be something to behold….
