Synopsis
The moment of all decisions is near. Halvard, the Dragon's Son, waits eagerly for the coming of the White Night, when he will assimilate Absolute Knowledge and become a god on Earth; his twin sister Kelda must choose between the temptation of that same power and the mission entrusted to her by the Stone of Time. Around them gather the threads of three generations of the family that has guarded the seven magic stones of the sorceress Aranwen since Catelyn first wore them in A Última Feiticeira: the stones whose magic bends the will of humans and magical beings alike with the promise of a power beyond imagining. The eighth and last volume settles their fate and how they are returned to those with the right to them, as the long war between the Luminous Art and the Dark Art, between Vikings, Allies and the masters of the shadows, comes to its end.
