Not only elven kings carry secrets - ancient artefacts do too.
Fifteen-year-old storm rider Haydan has never wanted the mask of the gods or the responsibilities that accompany it, but whether he likes it or not it's his destiny. Now he's discovering that unless he plays to his strengths and quickly he stands no chance as the threats to him and his soul family are growing.
Rumours have always circulated about the dangerous dark gods, but now they're showing interest in Haydan. As King Tallin's masquerade ball approaches, excitement builds and Haydan finds himself trapped between Tallin's magical games, a mysterious hidden adversary in the elven king's court and feuding dark gods who want him and the mask at any cost.
The only way Haydan will survive is if he places his trust in his feisty chosen one and misbehaving warrior and works with them to capture the realms connected to the mask. Can he figure out the clues and start claiming realms to protect everyone he cares about before it's too late? Or will the dark gods take him prisoner?
