Dreadborn begins in the shadow of catastrophe. The Etraek Empire, battered and bleeding from the events of Saltborn, stands on the brink of collapse. Hollowspire trembles as Kael, Glint, Reed, Rhyssen, and Lissara depart in a desperate race against time — their Etraeus, the empire’s heart, and its imperiled empress.
From frozen wastelands to arid deserts, their path is relentless, each mile shadowed by the advance of a devil’s army bent on reaching the city gates. The Silent Watch and their allies must fight not only against devils and rising armies, but against despair itself, as the empire’s survival hangs by a thread.
Dreadborn is a tale of urgency and defiance — of warriors bound by loyalty, of an empire threatened from without and within, and of the perilous journey to save a throne before the storm of war consumes all.
