Farmer Bundon never dreamed of fancy.
But when, by chance; in the hedgerows, he discovers a fald’s egg (a dragon’s smaller, uglier cousin) fancy seems to find him regardless. He and his spirited daughter Tyr’Dalka are brought unwillingly into a conflict, where his humble wisdom, her boundless honesty and a cowardly fald must do battle against the more contemptible shadows of human kind; the dark fires of avarice, pride and wrath.
“But there’s no forcing the hearts of the unwilling, lest you lend your hands to conquest. And we’re no conquerors, Tyr. Just a farmer, and his daughter.”
Through talks of destiny and deals with dragons; through the oaths of knights and the riddles of elves, the reluctant and weary family weaves their thread, and lay their humble hands to drawing out the foul poisons of the world, when and wherever they might find them.
