Lucy Wickshire is feared across realms because of her family history. The thraines have always been a clan of passive warriors that one dared not provoke. Still, it did not stop those above from breaking the pact and descending into the rankless world to kill Lucy's mother. Seeing her mother die before her eyes, Lucy had understood then; she was not a child anymore, she was a threat. It was either them or her. So she straightened her back and reigned down fear that put her mother's legacy to shame. As long as she lived, all realms must kneel or burn. 
You are about to read the accounts of Lucy Wickshire and the millions of bodies burned as a backdrop to her rage.

If You are still reading here, I have started reposting on the other free Lucy Wickshire. For those who are confused, there are two versions of this book on this platform. This happened during the signing. The other one does not have locked chapters and I have started posting there because I am considering the future chapters of this book going free as a perk, since this author has been on hiatus too long and most of you have left. Thus, this is an olive branch to return. Right now, the other Lucy Wickshire has not caught up with this one in chapters, but go ahead and add it to your library and vote on it to get it up the charts.

Walter, on the other hand, was expecting this so he and D'huile were completely unconcerned. His eyes scanned the men aiming their arrows at them; they were warriors of the Tree tribe. He saw the most tattooed man amongst them, staring down at them without a weapon in hand and knew that most be the leader. 


"Tree people, I come with a gift for the protectors of the emperors shed. Your chief will love my gift." Walter said. 


The tattooed men looked at their leader, who nodded and they put down their bows. The leader eyed Walter's blank face before nodding to one of the men. 


"Open the gates!" the man shouted and scraping of ropes could be heard in front of them. They watched as a gate made of vines raised upwards, till there was a clear path for Walter and the rest to pass. 


"Enter." the leader said and Walter complied.
