Colder. <em>Famished.\u00a0<\/em>With flesh-eating monsters and a sinister curse spreading like a plague, the last glimmer of humanity in Foxglove Parish has long-since faded.<\/p>\n<p>For Maevyth and Zevander, the only chance of escape is through The Eating Woods. But fate has woven a new web, tangling the threads of destiny, and crossing the mystical boundary to Aethyria might not be so simple.<\/p>\n<p>As the bones of Maevyth\u2019s past are unearthed, and truths unravel with unsettling clarity, the possibility of never leaving Mortasia is becoming more of a reality. Unfortunately for Zevander, time is running out. The longer he stays in the mortal lands, deprived of essential vivicantem, the more he succumbs to the encroaching specter of madness.<\/p>\n<p>Or maybe those chasing shadows are someone hunting him. A wretched evil closing in, threatening to pull him into the darkest corners of his mind.<\/p>\n<p>Only, this time, Maevyth may not have the power to save him.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img
