However, Raiden, a young mage, has always struggled with adhering to any rules. When the life of his beloved sister hangs by a thread, he is prepared to do anything, even if it means violating both the laws of mages and gods. For his audacity, he must pay the price. The gods can be as cruel as the Circle of Mages or people brimming with the lust for power. Raiden must atone for his actions and alter his fate. Destiny has raven wings, and Raiden has just heard the ominous cawing. "Covenant of the Doubtful" is a tale from the "Raven Heart" series.
