Crown Prince, the elf Silvyr Quilen is the family disappointment. His father, High King Keryth Quilen of Athowen, wanted a son to follow in his image. A warlord with no regard for those around him, the king finds Silvyr's desires to be pathetic and useless. Chief Brokil of the Ghizol Orcs has been tasked with leading and protecting his people. With the approval of the Ghizol council of Elders, Brokil executes his plan: Kidnap the Prince of Athowen, Silvyr Quilen, and send their ultimatum to the King. Leave Ghizol alone, or have his heir be killed. Keeping Silvyr as his ward, Brokil finds that while the prince was the most annoying person he's ever met, he is also nothing like his father who carries the name Tyrant King. Silvyr and Brokil are forced to confront themselves and each other while the looming threat of Ghizol's demands hang over them.
