After the plague of the Demon Wars and the following the blight of Bain the Dragon King's rule, peace has finally come to the land of the pix. The heroes of the Griffin's Gauntlet go their separate ways to find their destinies. The ancient witch, Olden Jade, and her young charge, Sharon of the Other World, establish the Blackwoods Coven with the intention to spend the rest of their days in solemn worship of the Goddess. Juston, the last Knight of the Citadel, returns home to Kurault, and is named king for his heroic deeds in the battle of Bain City. The demon sorceress, Darklin Reed, broods alone in the Rune Mountains, and is inspired to start a coven of her own. But peace is shattered when a diabolical act of regicide and a bloody coup follow. War is declared to avenge this treachery. The key figures of both common and royal blood are guided by the songs of a mysterious bard who is heard, but never seen. Meanwhile, the Blackwoods Coven is drawn into this escalating turmoil of political affairs by a dire prophesy of a massive calamity. One that would dwarf anything the Pix has ever suffered before. And only the Blackwoods Coven can stop it!
