Juramento de Cesión (Luz de la Corte #2)
by Terah Edun Angeles Aragon LopezLa aprendiza de Compañera Ciardis Weatherven había conquistado la amistad del heredero imperial y salvado su derecho al trono. Pero su intromisión en los derechos de herencia causó más daños que beneficios. Con la muerte de la Princesa Heredera, el Bosque Ameles, hogar de los kiths, se estaba muriendo. Los habitantes del bosque, no humanos practicantes de magia, se mostraban desafiantes. No habían olvidado sus muchos esfuerzos ni estaban dispuestos a ver morir sus últimas tierras. Cuando los humanos empezaron a sufrir muertes horripilantes, el Emperador envió al heredero imperial al bosque a solucionar los problemas de los kiths. Con sus enemigos cerrando filas en Sandrin, Ciardis difícilmente podía permitirse abandonar el nido de víboras de la ciudad para asumir una tarea nueva. Pero cuando se cuestionó su lealtad a la corona y a las Cortes, no le quedó más remedio que hacerlo. Para mantener contento al Gremio de Compañeros y conservar el favor de la Corte Imperial, Ciardis tuvo que pasar nuevas pruebas terroríficas, sobre todo al enfrentarse con un obstáculo que podía poner en peligro las vidas de sus amigos y de la familia que creía no tener. Esta segunda novela continúa la historia de Cieardis Weathervane en Juramento de crianza.
