The original realm of Valdemar is a small, mostly overlooked duchy in the vast and corrupt Eastern Empire. It is ruled by Kordas, a decent but complicated man, who inherited his father's multi-year plan to evacuate his people out from under the thumb of their cruel Emperor. They are able to do so by creating a Gate that will take them far to the west, out of the Empire's reach. But no sooner is the Gate established than Kordas is recalled to the Empire's capital city, where he will find both treachery and unexpected allies.

At long last, Valdemar has a proper origin story. This book describes the reasons for the self-imposed exile of the people who will soon establish a new nation, with Kordas as its first King. It also introduces the air elementals called vrondi, and explains how they came to be so closely affiliated with Valdemar.
