The third part of the “Witch World” saga tells of events taking place 20 years after the victory over the sorcerers. The story is told by the children of Simon Tregarth and the sorceress Jelith: the twins Killian, Cathteya, and Kemok. Bound by strong mental ties and sharing both earthly and sorcerous blood, they discover that only their perception can reach all four points of the compass. For all other inhabitants of the magic world of the East, it simply does not exist: there are no legends, no historical references, and not even memories of it. And when a new threat hangs over their world, the Tregarth twins decide to undertake a dangerous and adventurous journey—toward the East, into the country of Escor, hidden from minds and eyes by a magical barrier. Somewhere there lies the key to the mysteries of their world, to the sorcery that has secretly shaped their fate!
