Kesira Minette, proud she-warrior and last flame of a fallen creed, now faces a challenge greater than ever before. Together with her proud companions - the fierce man-wolf Molimo, and the wise magical bird Zolkan - she has journeyed to the fabled mountains of Sarn, realm of the wrathful Jade Demon Ayondela. There she will seek a confrontation with evil...and discover the fearful answer to the burning question that haunts her.

For Kesira bears with her a magical child, a babe who never cries but whose eyes shine with a mysterious light. Against mercenaries armed with axe and spear, against demons bent on Kesira's destruction, the child acts as a talisman against the forces of night. What is the small one's special destiny? Will he be Kesira's salvation...or a demon spawn who will unleash untold horror?
