The Sword of Voitra

It’s time to go to war, but traitor Lindrick’s treachery has lost the Candlers their element of surprise, without which they will be outmatched. Cal waits anxiously for news of his plan to turn the tables back in their favour. But he is counting on traitor Lindrick staying true to his treacherous, double-dealing, nature. Has Cal read the man’s motives right? Or will he be defeated even before the battles have been joined? Cal is keeping himself busy while he waits for news. With a smith’s hammer back in his hand again, he beats out the nightmare that he has witnessed so many times, both during the Keenings and in his dreams. Over and over he beats the red-hot steel, to give form to a horror too deadly to even contemplate. Yet he must forge this weapon; it is his fate to wield it and to be wielded by it.
