Terra's search for her mother takes her and her lover to the frigid peaks of a mountain. She'll find a piece of her family, but it won't be her mother.
The next piece of the puzzle to find Queen Anai is on top of Varangoi, a mountain that is the home of The Great Sage. Unfortunately, it's also the home of feral vampires.
Will Lance and Terra be able to get to The Great Sage before the cold or vampires kill them? Will Lance abandon Terra? What do the ravens that follow them mean?
