Over a millennium ago, Erna, a seismically active yet beautiful world was
settled by colonists from far-distant Earth. But the seemingly habitable planet
was fraught with perils no one could have foretold, and the colonists found
themselves caught in a desperate battle for survival against the fae, a
terrifying natural force with the power to prey upon the human mind itself,
drawing forth a person's worst nightmare images or most treasured dreams and
indiscriminately giving them life. Twelve centuries after fate first stranded
the colonists on Erna, mankind has achieved an uneasy stalemate, and human
sorcerers manipulate the fae for their own profit, little realising that
demonic forces which feed upon such efforts are rapidly gaining in strength.
Now, as the hordes of the dark fae multiply, four people - Priest, Adept,
Apprentice and Sorcerer - are about to be drawn inexorably together for a
mission which will force them to confront an evil beyond their imagining, in a
conflict which will put not only their own lives but the very fate of humankind
in jeopardy ...
