Description

The magic in the Valley is dying. The age-old spell can no longer protect the land from its enemies. Four companions must find the sorcerer who conjured the ancient power. Their journey is desperately dangerous, and the travellers are shadowed by a mysterious figure. Is the shape-changing Ropemaker their ally? Or a deadly enemey?
