Chains of Fate

For centuries, the Vul'kari lived in harmony within the Whisperwood, their souls forever bound to Ysylthir, the sacred mana tree that granted them a deep connection to the living world. Through her power, a great veil protected their homeland, and the mana-song of nature flowed through every generation. Beyond the forest, however, the Thrakai watched with envy. The wolf tribes had long coveted the Vul'kari's gift, seeking for generations to claim the power of mana for themselves. Every ritual, every hunt, and every ancient tradition ended in failure—until they finally discovered a new path. When the Thrakai breached Ysylthir's sacred veil, the Whisperwood was engulfed in fire and blood. The Vul'kari were slaughtered, and only the females were taken alive... along with Len, a mysterious fox whose nature embodies both male and female. Now a prisoner among the Thrakai, Len must confront an uncertain future under the watchful eye of Varric, the wolf chosen to be his mate.
