When a demon-spawned entity wreaks havoc on the world, the destinies of seven different warriors become intertwined in the ultimate battle of good vs. evil as they join to defeat the very thing that has ruined their lives and now threatens their world.
Olen Forester knew he hadn't been a good father to his first two children; his duties to protect the King's forests kept him away-despite telling himself it was for them. They were the reason he worked so long and so hard, not his own fulfillment. Then with the birth of his second son Jalon, he was given another chance to be the father he never was with to his first son and daughter, this is a new opportunity to become the man he wants to be for his family.
Until one day, a demon spawned creature takes that opportunity away from him by killing young Jaylon right in front of him.
Ravaged by grief, hatred, and anger, Olen flies into a blind rage to kill the beast and comes within millimeters of meeting the same fate as his son when a wizard from another land saves his life and banishes the beast to the hell that spawned it.
Olen discovers that the wizard also has a beast to blame for losing everything he cared about... and they're not alone. The one-man party soon turns to seven after finding:
• • A young prince who despises the beast for taking his father, the King. • A princess and her aunt were nearly attacked by demon riders under the beast's influence. • A stranger from the Far East on a blood quest to avenge his slain Lord and father, killed by the same entity. • The youngest companion, ostracized for her magical skills, who finds belonging among those fighting the beast.
Together, this mythical and powerful band of heroes hopes to combine their strengths to fulfill a forgotten ancient prophecy that will end the greatest evil mankind has ever known.
