    Summary

    Midwinter Night, 1489 DR. Julian of Yûlash had lost everything. Her congregation was dead, the temple she had called home reduced to ash—and she, the last anchorite, was all that remained. But the Black Hand had always had plans for her, long before she could fully understand His favor and His purpose—her survival could be no different. On the holy night of Banerise, the celebration of His resurrection, Julian reaches out for guidance. His message is clear. Leave the Moonsea, the only home she has ever known, and make the months-long journey to Baldur's Gate to support his Chosen.

    5 Flamerule, 1489 DR. Enver Gortash had made himself something from nothing. In the last two years, he had accomplished much—being Chosen by his Lord being his main point of pride. And yet, nothing can ever be so simple. He is a peer but he is not respected, his Steel Watcher does not work as intended, and despite standing on equal footing General Thorm continues to undermine whatever sense of authority remains. But even when He so rarely speaks to Enver directly, he knows the Black Hand has plans for him. So when he receives of a vision a young woman, guided to Wyrm’s Crossing by Him, Enver takes it for a boon.
