The Pass of Abyss

Synopsis

LIBRO V The Pass of Abyss Beyond the last Inn begins a path that does not appear on the maps. Oberon, Uther, Gloin and Tarvan cross into a region where winter doesn't obey stations, petrified trees preserve human forms and travellers lose memories as others lose blood. That's where they find Lia, a border keeper built up against an evil whose name was deliberately forgotten. To continue, each will have to surrender something. Gloin will figure out what happened with his father, Thorin Cuernonebre, and why his mace is the key to a door that should never have been opened. Oberon will have to decide how much he's ready to sacrifice to fulfill his orders. Uther will first listen to the promise of a pronounced crown with the exact voice of his own desires. While the princes penetrate the cryptas, the Dominion buries Gaheris at the Dragon Bastion. King Darra turns dueling into a strategy, prepares his remaining children for an endless war and forces Valiant to ask if his oath requires obeying the king or saving the princes from what pain is turning his father into. At the end of the path, Thorin's waiting. Or what's left of him. And with his hands lies a mask that cannot be destroyed as long as the corpse of the devil Mefisto remains hidden somewhere in the world. Finding her was the mission. To date her will be his conviction.
