Six years after the death of the half-demon Belial, Carter still searches for Keeper Dearbhaile. Repeated journeys into the Abyss and under the influence of Tianarri moss has triggered the growth of a super-powered evil side of the Walker of Worlds. At the same time, Drago the Clanless has grown in power and influence, peddling a dangerous, yet tempting tale, backed by a hidden benefactor and leading a huge army of demons. As Carter reunites with old friends, he learns of a powerful artifact that will change the Realm for centuries to come. Will he find his missing love, stop the Dark Dwarf, end the war and keep the artifact from the hands of evil - including his own?
