In Shadow and Crown: Mists of Murke
In the kingdom of Mayfrost, loyalty is a mask—and blood runs colder than snow.
Captain Ralme Verdar of the Veil Rangers is hunting for his missing sister, Arya—a gifted sorceress who vanished without a trace. But when a cruel revelation shatters his hope, Ralme finds himself entangled in a deadly web of royal treachery, sorcery, deception, and a war he never meant to start.
And far from the safety of thrones and banners, Fedran moves through the dark—a haunted wanderer and master of close-quarters combat and daggers, whose past is etched with fire, silence, and secrets no man should carry. Dangerous yet strangely loyal, he’s the kind of ally who doesn’t ask questions… and doesn’t hesitate to kill.
As paths converge deep within the forest’s cursed heart, hunted by shadows both human and unnatural, Ralme and those who cross his path must confront truths buried beneath betrayal, blood, and bone—before Mayfrost’s silence swallows them whole.
