500    Originally published in Great Britain in 2011. 
520    Still grieving the death of her son, the Holy Matriarch of
       Mann has ordered her troops to embark on a mission to the 
       Mercian Free Ports. Riding at the head of her army she 
       plans to finally conquer the city of Bar-Khos, whose walls
       have kept them at bay for ten long years. Ash has other 
       plans for her. The old Roshun warrior is determined that 
       he will have vengeance for the crimes she has committed. 
       But such a course of retribution is in direct opposition 
       to everything he has lived for this isn't a Roshun 
       vendetta it's personal. While Ash battles with his 
       conscience, Che, the Matriarch's personal Diplomat and 
       assassin, is questioning his own path. Watching as the 
       Mannian army slaughters their way across the world, he 
       wonders whether he believes any of the doctrine he has 
       been taught to follow. As the battle for Bar-Khos 
       intensifies, more and more lives are affected: Bahn who 
       leaves all he loves in the city to try to protect it from 
       the ravening Mannian empire, Bull the murderer who senses 
       a chance to make things right, and Curl, the young 
       prostitute who is determined to seek her own retribution 
       on the field of battle. When the two armies clash all 
       looks set to be decided. But it's not sheer force that 
       will win this battle. But the tormented determination of 
       one man seeking redemption ...
