""To her, to her dying breath, you were the untouchable one, the one whose flesh her dagger could not penetrate."

The Assassin

The Mercenary

A dark elf of limitless guile dares to challenge a king, and carve for himself a place in the inhospitable World Above.

Ilnezhara and Tazmikella are ancient dragons of great power, accustomed to easily manipulating the humans around them. But not all humans are so easily led. When they pushed Entreri and Jarlaxle into the heart of the Bloodstone Lands, not even they could have imagined the strength of the human assassin’s resolve, or the limitless expanse of the drow mercenary’s ambition."

Summary
Ilnezhara and Tazmikella have ceased their working relationships with Jarlaxle and Artemis. The pair have attracted the attention of both the Citadel of Assassins (especially Entreri) and Spysong. Entreri is becoming more confused and self-reflective about himself which is complicated by the fact that he has taken Calihye as his lover. Jarlaxle is more interested in his surface empire, hoping to use the Zhengyian construct as the center of his new realm. Athrogate the dwarf takes to spending the harsh Damaran winter drinking himself into a stupor, planning on resuming his monster hunting in the spring.
