Felitïa has partially broken through her block, but now finds herself flooded with powers she can’t yet control. Although she has guidance from Mikranasta, it is going to take time to learn that control—time she might not have. As prophesied in The Foretellings of Eleuia, the daemons have come for her, and they will destroy Quorge to get to her.
Meanwhile, Rudiger is a prisoner in the Royal Palace outside Arnor City, where Lidda Plavin is determined to learn the secrets of his sword, Slay. She believes it to be the legendary sword, Daemonslayer, but according to all other sources, Daemonslayer is guarded by a group of monks in Singea. Rudiger’s sword must be one of a number of decoy swords, yet there’s no denying Rudiger’s sword has power. The only way to determine the truth is to travel to Singea and compare the swords, but both swords pass every test meant to distinguish the real Daemonslayer from the decoys. This leads the monks to a conclusion they admit is utterly impossible, but must be true nonetheless. However, Rudiger is less accepting of the monks’ conclusion and believes there must be something else going on, After all, the two swords can’t both be the same sword, can they?
Slay is the third part of The Will-Breaker, an epic fantasy series of magic, mystery, adventure, and romance. It contains a diverse cast of characters of various personalities, races, genders, and sexualities.
