Shadows of the Highridge

Moving on the soil is the quickest way to die; for Tolly to survive she must learn to stay silent. Life on farms like hers was difficult enough in the face of plague and a decade of drought, but something worse has come to the foothills under the Highridge Mountains. Something that will destroy them all.

Mere miles away, Vanig's search for water to resuscitate his farm is cut short when soldiers arrive bearing dark news of disaster striking farms throughout the region - and they suspect he is the root cause of it all. Those suspicions spike when a disheveled warrior appears hundreds of miles from home and takes Vanig hostage.

Death looms in the shadows of the Highridge.
