A sad, pathetic wretch rises from where she's been tossed in a muddy alley. It is L'Valin, the former mentalt, her much-vaunted will destroyed by the work of R'Mang, the Shazad's Royal Torturer. Yet, little does this sad wreck of a once-proud Mentalt know the fateful jorney that lies before her - a journey not merely across the lands, but through hell itself - and beyond.
