Blackveil

Mornhavon the Black, heir to the Arcosian Empire, has fallen. He was defeated in battle and imprisoned in Blackveil Forest, which was in turn sealed away behind the impenetrable, magical D'Yer Wall. But he had fallen long before then as well: to madness, and to dark and desperate magics which twisted his soul and rendered him immortal.

Karigan G'ladheon ventured into Blackveil once on a mission which transported Mornhavon into the future, buying herself and her friends time to shore up the failing magics of the D'Yer Wall. It worked, but it's only a temporary measure, and now the Green Riders must scour the country for clues to protect themselves and Sacoridia from the tainted forest.

But the Sacoridians are not the only ones interested in Blackveil. The Eletians, the immortal race who used to live within the forest, plan to send a small delegation into the heart of Blackveil to determine the fate of their long-lost city Argenthyne. Suspicious of their true intentions, King Zachary insists that an equal number of Sacoridians accompany them . . . and Karigan is a perfect choice for the mission.

The slightest misstep could lead to Karigan's death, and she has no idea if the Eletians can really be trusted. But there's another threat within Blackveil: a small contingent of Arcosian descendents have also entered the forest. They've kept Mornhavon's dark magic alive for centuries, and they're planning to use it to bring Sacoridia to its knees.
