A Darkness at Sethanon
by Raymond E. Feist
Murmandamus, a new Dark Elf prince marshals the forces of the Moredhel, and invades the kingdom, with the intent of finding the Lifestone, with which he will be able to destroy every living thing in the world, so as to resurrect the Valheru Lords of old. Only Pug and Tomas, can stop this new evil, thereby ending the Riftwar.
Arutha, Prince of Krondor, uses an attempted assassination as a ruse to fake his own death so that he may travel north to confront Murmandamus. In his travels to the Northlands, Arutha finds his father's former enemy, Guy du Bas-Tyra, as the Protector of the city Armengar. A historic battle ensues, which ends in the destruction of the city. Murmandamus and his forces then strike south to Sethanon, a city beneath which the Lifestone had been buried in the ancient past.
Meanwhile, Pug and Tomas begin searching the world, and eventually beyond, for the famed sorcerer Macros the Black thought killed when he helped to destroy the rift at the end of Magician. With the guidance of Macros, the history of the universe is revealed to Tomas and Pug. Tomas is told of his complete Valheru heritage and does battle with his former Valheru nemesis at Sethanon.
A battle ensues at Sethanon, during which Pug and Macros work together to prevent the Valheru from re-entering Midkemia. At the same time, Arutha, destined as The Bane of Darkness, engages in a duel with Murmandamus.He defeats Murmandamus, and realises he was a Panthathian, a race of evil lizard-men, They wished to use the Lifstone to release Alma-Lokada,a Valheru, who created the Panthathians and was worshipped as a God by them.
