The Faeries fear their civilization faces extinction. Their lush enchanted forests have become cities of death. And a Goddess has awakened from the terrors of her past, only to discover that the nightmares were real. So it is in the Land of Mernac.
Alas, her Sisters, no help are they. The other six Mothers are powerless to stop her descent into darkness. Thirteenth of the twenty to come to this land so long ago, her brothers of the Dark soon marked her as easy prey. Softly, irresistibly they call her, “Come into the darkness, be one with us.”Canola, Goddess of Music and Dance, clings to the Light, yet is plagued by indecision. Her brother Abuba, Father of Indecision; does he confound her mind? Her brother Linthur, Father of Revenge; can he be persuaded to quell mankind’s petty struggles before the lands are drenched with blood. Can she count upon her brother Elsen, Father of Ethereal Elements, to let loose his disciples…quake, lightning, fire and wind…to take a hand. And her brother Barak, the Dark Lord himself…will he release his Hell Hounds, those dread beasts whose very howling strikes terror in all the races. The Goddess wails in her frustration.
The call to arms is raised: Come dragon, giant, gnome and troll! Stand proudly along side valiant Fae. Blessed be your arms: the axe and sword, the hammer and mace. And arise, you keepers of sorcery, long hidden, spat upon, discredited. Long seasons have you waited, but no more: Dark Fantasy is about to be unleashed!An angry Goddess in Mirdoren dwells…must Mernac pay the ultimate price? Devastation as far as eyes can see; she has but to open her hand and send it flying…can Mernac survive?
Balance is required to bring her back, balance that only four can provide. Roadius, Father of Mischief, teaching her to laugh at herself…Quont, Father of Lust, providing the knowledge that lust need not shun the light…Kala, Mother of Love and Desire, who makes her feel wanted…and Sola, Mother of Life and Light, pointing the way to the beacon at the end of her Age.Attend me now; the tale is about to begin.
