The Law of Isolation

Two lands, separated for a millennium by divine decree. Each holds the key to the other’s survival. The Matriarch of Ramunna needs an heir. Only the lost healing magic of the ancient wizards can help her conceive and bear the daughter who will ensure Ramunna’s future. She sends an expedition to seek the wizards who legends say still dwell somewhere far across the uncharted ocean. Tevenar hovers on the brink of disaster. Elkan, Josiah, and the rest of the Wizard’s Guild battle a virulent wheat blight, but even the Mother’s power might not be enough to prevent a deadly famine. The arrival of the Matriarch’s envoy offers both hope and danger. For in order to strike the bargain that could save both lands, they’ll have to sacrifice the isolation that has protected Tevenar for centuries.**
