Quaeryt, now holding the rank of subcommander in the Telaryn army of Lord Bhayar, leads history's first imager fighting force into a retaliatory war against the hostile nation of Bovaria, which recently attempted the annexation of Telaryn. But Court intrigues pursue Quaeryt to the front lines of the conflict as the imager's enemies continue to plot against him. In the midst of all this, Quaeryt must somehow teach his men to control the powerful and dangerous imaging skills at their command. Yet despite the risks, Quaeryt pursues his own agenda: to legitimize imagers in the hearts and minds of all men, demonstrating their value as he leads his battalion into one costly battle after another.
