These are dark and bloody times for those living in Scania and northern Europe.

Churches are at war over territory and believers. Nations are at war over land and resources.

Heldin is a witch. A solitary practitioner searching for a peaceful place to have a life of simplicity.

She is in need of a certain old magic. A grimoire hidden by an elder witch in the ruins of an old castle. However, finding the castle’s location brought terrifying news.

except for her.
