Callum has survived dungeons, ancient monsters, and the schemes of powerful factions. Now he faces something far stranger. Peace. Back among the vast grasslands of the Central Plains, Callum and Carrie must relearn life among the Horde. The Spring Festival fills the camps with celebration, trade, and the promise of new alliances. For the first time in months, the swords are sheathed and the future almost feels normal. Callum even has plans of his own. A grove of rare fruits brought from the Western Islands could change trade across the plains forever. Chocolate. Coffee. Goods unlike anything the nomads have ever tasted. But peace never lasts long. In a northern forest, something is poisoning the land, some say. People whisper that crops will fail. Animals grow strange and hostile. Thugs prey on travelers while whispers spread of a deeper corruption beneath the trees. What begins as a small problem soon reveals something far more dangerous. Callum came home expecting rest. Instead he may be walking straight into the next battle.
