Description
"The Silvertree Stronghold is more than just the family estate of the feared and awed Silvertree dynasty, whose wizardly powers and political cunning have survived through many generations." "With their powers comes a curse." "A curse more terrifying than rival warlords or the mystical threats of the dreaded faceless - an inward corruption of the soul that binds one's powers to a downward spiral of madness and magic." "The Stronghold goes by the name of The Silent House. It is a soul repository for the dynasty. Two daring treasure hunters hope to profit by unlocking the secrets of its past and harvesting the powers of its bounty...but unbeknownst to them an observer watches their every move and waits to make his presence know from the halls of eternity." The Silent House is a Chronicle of Aglirta, the multigenerational tale of a powerful and feared wizardly dynasty.
