Vestra Mordenroth is in hiding.
An ex-adventure, current professor, and notable crank and mad scientist, Vestra Mordenroth is a teacher at Heathcliff University and works with his apprentice Aiden O'Leary. None know that he is a member of the Mordenroth family; their legacy would bring too much trouble. Instead, he goes by Vestra Morgen and does his best to live a simple life passing on his considerable knowledge to the next generation.
But nightmares of his past life keep him up at night. He remembers the terrible, strange creatures he encountered in a cave where walls of chattering teeth chased him. Vestra cannot forget the world with the red, starless sky that brushes up against his own. He cannot forget his dead lover, Lypia, or the hand he had in their death.
And when the city of Chabon, Vestra's refuge, begins to be infested by some other nightmare from that …
