[edit] Plot Introduction

Having being revealed as a girl in Hidden Warrior, Tamir (recently Tobin), tries to rule her kingdom with Arkoniel at her side, and trying to hide the love she feels for Ki. But what she doesn't understand is why Brother, her dead demon brother, has come back with more power than before, stronger as she draws closer to a battle with Korin...

[edit] Plot Summary

More and more people flock to Tamir's cause as they find out that she is Skala's promised Queen and that only by putting her on the throne will everything be alright once more.

Tamir (recently Tobin) is much loved by the people and very popular, but she faces problems of her own. Ki, whom she loves, does not feel love in return, while Brother is back with more power than ever, introducing himself with only this line; 'The dead do not rest until they have had vengeance'. With everyday that the two opposing could-be-future monarchs of Skala (Korin and Tamir), the soldiers become more and more restless, itching for a fight.

However, Tamir doesn't want to fight her beloved cousin and tries to delay the battle as much as she can.
