The Outcasts have been uprooted from their homes and banished to live out their days in isolation. Dorren is an Outcast with a nasty habit of breaking the rules, even those of his own people.

Thanks to a power-mad king and a mysterious sorcerer, the two nations move closer and closer to war, putting the futures of the surrounding kingdoms in peril. Can anything be done to prevent complete destruction, and will the Outcasts be caught in the middle?
