What if all the heroes died? Malthus Kierin always dreamed of adventuring, of making his mark upon the world of Kalan. After he earns his robe and staff, rewards for passing the tests required to become a wizard, the door to his dreams stands open. But a nightmare awaits him on the other side, a black-hearted wizard who, along with his vile undead minions, systematically assassinates all of Kalan’s heroes. The tale of Malthus and his small band of companions begins, as they flee from the Darkener on a seemingly hopeless quest for aid. Who now will become heroes? Or will Kalan fall to an age of darkness?
Malthus Kierin always dreamed of adventuring, of making his mark upon the world of Kalan. After he earns his robe and staff, rewards for passing the tests required to become a wizard, the door to his dreams stands open. But he finds a nightmare on the other side, a black-hearted wizard who, along with his vile undead minions, systematically assassinates all of Kalan's heroes, then hunts Malthus down. Malthus and his small band of companions survive many trials, including imprisonment deep in an enchanted wood, and meet a loremaster who claims an artifact, a sphere of stone created by the immortal Zoral, can repel the undead that hunt them, and turn back the tide of evil. But can they survive long enough to find the stone? Or will Kalan fall into an age of darkness?

However, a nightmare lurks on the other side, a black-hearted wizard who, along with his vile undead minions, systematically assassinates all of Kalans heroes, and then hunts Malthus. After a narrow and expensive victory that nearly split Malthuss band of companions apart, they control the Stone of Zoral, a powerful artifact that can reverse the tide of darkness sweeping across the land. A decisive battle approaches as the enemys forces converge on the few remaining outposts of free peoples remaining in Kalan. Can the Merranai of prophecy, wielding the Stone, reclaim lands lost and avert an age of darkness?
