Part of a series, but can also be read as a standalone novel.
Petiria and Raiah are two healers from the House of Healing in Tasivan, Dawpenel, who have travelled all the way to Nava doing research into healing methods outside of the Houses of Healing.
The two women have no relation whatsoever to Niari, Carlitha or any other of the Companions, unless you count the fact that Pet was one of the healers who worked on Rozvin when she was wounded. All they really know about them comes from the songs and stories of their exploits that they’ve heard from time to time.
But when, on their way home to Dawpenel, they and their escort of three Cazovanian priests decide to take a short side trip to look at a ruined city near the border with Falodirian, all that changes. An overheard conversation places the two women in possession of vital information; information that could spell life or death for Niari, Carlitha, Keladryn, Tassi and others.
It is critical that the five travellers get this information to the people who can use it in time. But first, there’s the small matter of escaping from the forest they’re trapped in and the search parties hunting them.
Meanwhile, in the realm of the gods, Kerelline is not pleased that Warin is using her ladies to further the Plan, especially when she finds out that their participation may cost them their lives. Warin and Cazovania are afraid that she may interfere. The trouble is that if she does, she will give Elithim a free hand. That will not only doom the fugitives to almost certain death, it will also mean that their warning doesn’t get through. Kerelline’s meddling could cost all of them more than she could possibly imagine.
