Su reciente esposa, la princesa Sarene de Teod, creyéndolo muerto, se ve obligada a incorporarse a la vida de Arelon y su nueva capital, Kae. Mientras, el embajador y alto sacerdote de otro reino vecino, Fjordell, usará su habilidad política para intentar dominar Arelod y Teod con el propósito de somerterlos a su emperador y su dios.
