Publisher's Synopsis
Rhianyn's mother, Traphaunes's wife, a student of Cordysia's greatest Elven teacher, a veteran of the First Sylestian War, one of new Sylestia's cultural architects, guildmaster of the War Mages, accomplished poet (although few knew), midwife, mentor to Elven cadets, and some even believed a prophetess.
And for centuries she lived under a shadow, closer than any other... only in her final hours learning a horrible secret, uncovering a conspiracy... and facing her final destiny before she could tell anyone. One of the Cordysian Chronicles' most complex characters, appearing in several of the series' books and now given her proper spotlight. The circumstances of her twin sister, a love affair with a Human before her marriage, the backstory of ancient wars, tragic fate, and enduring legacy to a realm's very end. At last, here is Nyssina's untold story... The War Mage's Diary.
