Shifting Morality by Liam Young

Peace and prosperity have returned to the domain since the awful events that rocked the Freylarkai, allowing Rayna time to reflect on her altered biology, in particular how it is affecting her relationship with Lothnar, now stymied due to her unusual past.  Similarly, Darlia hits a wall, becoming increasingly agitated with her lot and seeking drastic change in order to move forward.  Yet, whilst those living in the vale use the downtime to deal with their personal struggles, the seed of an evil – previously thought vanquished – quietly bides its time in the shadows, gathering in strength.

A young Freylarkin possessing a strange ability rebels against her mother, as well as her mentor, Kirika.  Unable to discern the cause of Rarni’s increasingly difficult behaviour herself, Fate Weaver tasks Thandor with investigating the matter on her behalf.  However, the bored Paladin’s dogged pursuit of the truth behind the young female’s strange behaviour leads him along a dark path, one that could damn the inhabitants of the vale yet again.
