And that is proving extremely difficult, even with a common enemy … Meanwhile, Kriss must escape from the silver mine once again and resume her ascent of the Mountain of Time in order to catch up to Aniel.

Found and cared for by an herbalist and his apprentice, the queen must now hurry back across the lake-ocean to appear before our king – or the law of the Vikings will strip her of her crown and her hopes of one day using her power to rescue Aniel.
