The peoples of the Three Seas are threatened by the onset of the Second Armageddon and the new arrival of the Non-God. Anasurimbor Kellhus, hailed as the Warrior-Prophet, is finally recognized by the Holy War, and the valiant knights of the Inriti continue their campaign against the holy city of Shaime to recapture it from the pagans. But Kellhus's true goal is to find his father, the terrible and powerful Moenghus, hiding in the dungeons of the Indara-Kishauri cult. The knights and magicians, who clashed with the pagans under the walls of Shaime, win a victory, but will it not turn into defeat for all the peoples of the planet?
