    Summary

    The Dark Times are nothing more than ancient history to the humans. Fearsome tales told to all the children of the human kingdoms of Azeroth of satyr and wyvern and trolls and all the wild, fearsome things that once ruled the land. They are almost as fabled and feared as those that tamed the wilds with magic so powerful as to be incomprehensible.

    High Elves, the humans called them. Ruled by an all-powerful queen. Hidden away behind invisible barriers in a land of perpetual warmth and beauty. For the elves had tamed all things. Even nature, itself.

    The betrothal of Jaina Proudmoore, the first human with magic in her veins, to a Lord of the elven royalty was a convenient way for the humans to rid themselves of the perceived threat of a dangerous young woman with a gift none of them understood. It had also solidified a long-standing, tenuous truce between them. And Jaina? Well. Jaina never felt like she belonged, anyway. She has always wanted more.

    Summary

    “I think you like this boat more than me,” Vereesa teased, eyes sweeping over the cabin and lingering on the desk.

    “Ship,” Jaina gently corrected, gaining an eye roll in response, “And never.” She brushed her fingers over the stone dangling from Vereesa’s neck.

    Summary

    Jaina’s touch makes the world feel normal again. Like it did so many years ago, when she was just a ranger in training, hiding the fleeting crushes of youth from her sisters.

    “I’m so glad you’re here.” Jaina whispers, pulling back to sweep her eyes over the ranks of soldiers behind her. The sight seems to remind her of reality, and she steps back, straightens.

    “Welcome to Boralus!” She says to them, her voice firm and controlled. But her eyes drift back to Vereesa, as inevitably as an anchor sinking through deep ocean, and the corners of her eyes crinkle in a smile she doesn’t let anyone else see.

    Summary

    The Windrunner family has always carried the mantle of Ranger-General. But they have also loved and been loved in return. They are sons and daughters and mothers and fathers. There is a story behind the name. A story of love, acceptance, and loss beyond imagining...and of triumph against all odds.
