More DescriptionPeople in the Gyre are afraid of the Dragon Uln. They view her as a vicious enemy. But when the Emperor TerGhahn of the Ghahnean Empire captures her to use her energy for his visions of conquest, Uln's true role in the Gyre begins to be revealed. Unhappy at home in the prosperous kingdom of Pengellar, Princess Arenee is charmed and then kidnapped by the sorcerer Corbello, who is secretly working for the Emperor. When she escapes to the Ghahnean capital, she's horrified by the dragon's suffering and resolves to free her. Back at home, Pengellar has been grieving for two decades over the disappearance of Prince Antar, the Old King's younger son. Antar lives, but has lost his memory and has spent the decades living the dissolute life of a mercenary soldier in Ghahn. The prince and his niece cross paths briefly in Ghahn but don't recognize each other until the single battle of the Prodigal's War. This pivotal crisis brings together threads long sundered.
