A Warhammer Age of Sigmar Novel of Defiance and Loyalty

When Orders Conflict with Conscience

Knight-Incantor Tivrain Greymantle faces an impossible choice that will test the very foundations of her faith. Despite explicit commands from her superiors to stand down, this Stormcast Eternal cannot ignore the desperate call of her imprisoned brothers and sisters. Standing between her and their liberation is not only a raging horde of the Blood God’s most savage worshippers but also the wrath of her own command structure. This gripping novel explores what happens when duty to your comrades clashes with obedience to divine authority, forcing a heroic warrior to make a decision that could shatter everything she believes in.

Explosive Action Meets Moral Complexity

Experience an adrenaline-fueled adventure that delivers far more than spectacular combat sequences. Watch as Tivrain must wrestle with a profound question that cuts to the heart of faith itself: Is doing what you know to be right more important than unwavering loyalty to the God-King? This isn’t just another tale of warriors battling monsters. It’s a deeply personal journey that examines the price of conviction and the courage required to stand alone against overwhelming opposition, even when that opposition includes those you’ve sworn to serve.

Uncover Twenty Years of Dark Secrets

Two decades have passed since Anvilgard fell to the Daughters of Khaine and was reborn as Har Kuron, but beneath the occupied city’s streets lies a terrible truth that could shake the Mortal Realms to their foundations. Morathi-Khaine has imprisoned Tivrain’s fellow Stormcast Eternals in the city’s depths, knowing that their deaths or liberation would expose her treachery to Sigmar himself when he reforges their souls. This conspiracy has festered in darkness for twenty years, and Tivrain Greymantle is the only one willing to risk everything to bring it to light.

Navigate Deadly Terrain and Deadlier Enemies

Tivrain’s unauthorized rescue mission forces her to traverse some of the most hostile territory in the Mortal Realms. She must survive the steaming, predator-infested jungles of Aqshy’s Crucible of Life, where death lurks behind every vine and within every shadow. Once she reaches Har Kuron, she faces the even greater challenge of infiltrating a city controlled by the ruthless Daughters of Khaine. But the dangers don’t end there—her own superiors hunt her as a deserter, while a massive horde of Khornate Bloodbound closes in from another direction, their axes thirsting for Stormcast blood.

A Mission More Dangerous Than Anyone Could Predict

Tivrain and her loyal companions forge ahead with unshakeable determination, believing they understand the risks they face. They’re wrong. Unknown to them, forces far beyond their comprehension are already in motion, and their destinies are entwined with schemes that dwarf their desperate rescue attempt. What begins as a mission of mercy transforms into something far more treacherous, with consequences that will reverberate throughout the realm. Every step forward takes them deeper into a web of divine politics, ancient grudges, and supernatural machinations that threaten not just their lives but their very souls.
