Publisher's Summary

Stepping down from one of the many ancient faestones that adorn the luscious emerald-green landscape of the southern realm, the nine divines look on with intrigue as Kalu arrives in the world of man. Straight from a childhood nightmare, she is everything and more that has been sung about her in the folk songs: wonderful and awful, a less likely savior perhaps you will never find.

She is from the ‘other place’ and darkness trails from her, staining the air with the blackest of ink, her raw, almost demonic appearance so skillfully glamourized by an old magic the like of which the world had thought it had forgotten. It is not the first time her cloven feet have trod the verdant undergrowth of the human world, but this time is different; this time, something seismic has changed: like a fate already written and you may be forgiven for thinking that nothing will ever be quite the same again.
