A young shepherd boy sets out to find his calling and stumbles upon a land at war. Arnacin of Enchantress Island must wrestle with the purpose of honor, and the conflict that ensues when it's called into question.
Valoretta, princess of Mira, has been chosen to be her father's successor, but at what cost? Her country is in conflict, conspiracies abound, and the native population has risen against her father, King Miro, and their people.
Everything changes when Arnacin and Valoretta join forces to secure the future of Mira. But will Arnacin's honor be the greatest victim of The Savage War? And will the Black Phantom be Mira's doom or salvation?
