They
were the Cheysuli, a race of magical warriors, gifted with
the ability to assume animal shape at will. For centuries
they had been allies to the King of Homana, treasured champions
of the Realm. Until a king’s daughter ran away with
a Cheysuli liege man and caused a war of annihilation against
the Cheysuli race.
Twenty-five
years later the Cheysuli were hunted exiles in their own
land. All of Homana was raised to fear them, acknowledge
the sorcery in their blood, call them shapechanger, demon.
This
is the story of Alix, the daughter of that ill-fated union
between the Homanan princess and Cheysuli warrior, and her
struggles to comprehend the traditions of an alien race
she had been taught to mistrust, to answer the call of magic
in her blood, and accept her place in an ancient prophecy
she cannot deny.
