โฆ Synopsis
Set adrift by circumstances beyond her control Taryn, once a shepherd from the Carpathe Mountains, now finds herself in the new and strange company of mercenariesmen and women who fight for a living. With the help of Aella, the commanders daughter, Taryn will do her best to find her footing and earn the respect and trust of those around her.
Securing her status as a true member of Twelfth Company will assure her place in their travels to Dabsqin, a bustling metropolis in the heart of the Southern Desert. Like a paradise, the city has food aplenty, the streets are lined with treasures from all across the continent, and the decadent bathhouses are places of great renown. However, something less savory lurks beneath the glitzy surface. In a city that never sleeps, real monsters take advantage of the noise to work their mischief.
As Taryns past attempts to catch up with her she will find friendship, love, and plenty of fighting. Home is to the north; adventure lies ahead. There's no turning back now. Follow Taryn as she rides south in this next installment of the "Taryn's Journey" quartet.
