See all formats and editions

During the 16th century, the holy city of Jerusalem has been ruled by the Ottoman Empire.

But due to its lack of security and management, a new mercenary force was established in 1561 by the city's local forces.

Known as the Sha'Mar brotherhood, their sole duty to protect the rights of the Israeli people and maintain civil safety.

Two decades later the guild expanded, and a new youth has been inaugurated into its ranks as one of its most prominent members.

However when a trio of fugitives encounters him one night on duty, he is soon drawn into another conflict that threatens the peace of Israel born from a potentially fearsome alliance between the Ottomans and another rising empire that hunts for them.

Now faced with this new imperial menace, the young warrior Irijah of Lifta is compelled to join forces with the trio and their ongoing war to defend both their homelands to prevent a terrible queen and her army from rising to power. Irijah: A young mercenary of the Sha'Mar brotherhood.

His reputation as a commander in a past life has allowed the guild to expand in influence while it also garnered much controversy with Ottoman officials.

Together they seek retribution against an imperial army that had once invaded their homeland.

Breanna: The most fearless and headstrong of the Galway Selkies.

Armed with a two-bladed halberd along with her own raw strength, she revels in fighting strong opponents in order to improve herself. Lynet: The eldest and most carefree beauty of the Galway Selkies.
