Synopsis
The ruined city od Kuan Hador reeks of dak mystery. Shunned by brigands and merchants alike, it is home to fearsome wild things and legends that freeze the blood - tales that speak of a time thousands of years past, when Kuan Hador was the capital of an empire ruled by evil sorcerers. But at the heart of every legend lies a glimmer of truth and truth can kill. Especially when it comes in the form of slavering white beasts who posses an insatiable appetite for death and destruction. A ragtag group of unlikely heroes intend to oppose the sorcerers, and these are led by a man of destiny known throughout the lands of the Drenai as Waylander the Slayer. Waylander must kill a man who cannot die.
