Kith-Kanan is torn between his love for a human woman with a mysterious background and his loyalty toward his brother and rival, Sithas, ruler of the Silvanesti elves, who has declared war on the humans of Ergoth.

When Kith-Kanan of Qualinost, a society of renegade elves, is appointed Speaker of the Suns, his triumph is marred by memories of past failures, his unfaithful wife, and the strange behavior of his successor, his son. Reprint.
