En ce temps-là, la Compagnie ne servait qu'elle-même. Nous ne nous connaissions pas de maître. La Compagnie noire s'est établie au Pays des ombres inconnues. Mais elle prépare son retour. Libéré de sa captivité sous la forteresse sans nom, le vieux Toubib a repris les annales. Le temps a passé. Et le Khatovar n'est plus loin, le pays mythique auquel aspiraient les vieux de la vieille, la terre des origines. L'eldorado ? Rien n'est moins sûr. Dans ces mondes qui ploient sous la violence, la sorcellerie et les désirs pervers de divinités enfouies, le boulot ne manque pas pour les hommes de guerre. Car la guerre n'en finit pas. Nous voici au bout du voyage. Soldats d'os. Soldats de pierre. Les soldats vivent. Et se demandent pourquoi.
