When High Paladin Sorin discovers the brutally dismembered body of his cousin Alfrey, a much loved priest in the royal palace, he is left baffled as to who would do so terrible a thing to so good a man. But to find the answer to that question, he must cooperate with one of the highly despised necromancers, men who practice black magic, sleep in graveyards and feed upon souls … 

The necromancer Koray, however, is far from what he expected. He is beautiful, stubborn, and possessed of a tongue sharp enough to cut down even the High Paladin himself. Koray is also possessed of a strength like nothing Sorin has ever encountered, and the power of the Goddess herself.

"I wish I could see these energies," Emel said. "It sounds like that would be an extremely useful skill to have. So I guess they are not slaves, either."


"Most would say they are," Koray conceded. He looked out over the landscape. "Alchemists are what their government calls 'sponsored'. Magic is tightly regulated in Navath; only alchemy is permitted. All other forms are forbidden. It takes a lot of studying, training, and equipment to be an alchemist. Anyone with potential becomes a ward of the crown and is made to train as an alchemist. When their training is complete, they're sold off to sponsors. They're very cold about magic; they do not believe in the Goddess at all." His lips curled as he finished explaining, sneering at the foolishness of people who did not listen to and obey the Goddess.
