After the old Zar dies, 15-year-old Boaz takes power. His mother Herezah arranges for her son's rivals to be disposed of and oversees the assembly of a new harem. One of its number is Ana whose only friends are Lazar, the Spur of Percheron, and a dwarf called Pez. Ana tries to escape, resulting in Lazar's apparent death at the hands of Salmeo, the eunuch in charge of the harem. Meanwhile, the rising of Iridor heralds a new cycle in the war of faith between the demon Maliz and the goddess Lyana.[1]

Meanwhile, she is being watched by Eunuch Salmeo and Valide Herezah, with Valide scheming her demise. The Demon Maliz has taken the identity of the Grand Vizier in order to stalk Iridor, the Goddess' accomplice and a war is starting with an enemy seeking a price for the death of their crown prince.[2]
