Most tales sing of great battles against overwhelming forces. Legendary heroes slaying demons and dark lords. But what happens after the war is won? What becomes of those heroes once their swords are laid down?
For Aleria, peace should have meant solace. Yet when an old comrade summons her to the town of Last Gate to take over the local clinic, she cannot refuse. Hoping to find a place to call home after the horrors of war, Aleria accepts - a chance to put her formidable magics to noble use.
But darkness still lurks in the shadowed corners of the land. And when foul creatures threaten her new home and its people, Aleria must face the call to battle again. Can she save Last Gate without surrendering to the monster within? Or will The Emerald Witch be reborn, as a nightmare serving the greater good once more?
