Forsaking both daughter and kingdom, and armed only with her fabled sword Brightsong, Nina is flown across the mountains by Illyugi the dragon, at best an uncertain ally. She must quest the Broken Lands for the secrets of her destiny as Nina the Chosen. To discover what it is she has been chosen for. However, each step of the journey takes her further into the morass of confusion and uncertainty that plagues her world - and her dreams.
