First King's Court

The Horned Crown has been destroyed and the prince of Mistral's Dusk Blood has awoken.

After successfully delivering Cassius's orders to Feng, Dorian and Shye have found themselves stuck in Aura, waiting on the wind to call Shye's name - but Shye's powers are broken.

It isn't until Minister Sincere of the Feng Council arrives that they learn the true price of their actions in Mistral. Sincere has brought new orders from Cassius for his trusted Stormborn and hunter: find the source of the sickness spreading among the Blooded and eliminate it.

But as Shye and Dorian begin their mission, Cassius faces troubles of his own in the capital. The council are ever suspicious of the changes in their prince, and troubling dreams haunt Cassius's sleep. Dreams of a place he has never seen and a figure who burns with golden light. Treason stalks the halls of the Brightspir, and the allies Cassius has gathered may not be enough to help him hold the throne, now that he has lost his crown.

And under the seas of Aura the Nain tremble, for Dusk long imprisoned is waking, hungry for vengeance...

As the Blooded fall, the Dusk Eater will rise.
