The world plunged into chaos when humans destroyed the last kingdom of the dwarves. Only the elves could have resisted them, but they returned to their vast forest domains, not realizing that they were now also in danger.

To prevent the Duke of Gorlois from spreading the rule of people throughout the land, based on the Christian faith, the wizard Merlin helps the knight Uther, the lover of Llyen, the queen of the elves.

Overshadowed by the magical power of Llyen, Uther becomes Pendragon - the greatest warrior of all nations, and from now on he has the power to restore the ancient world order. But he must choose one of the two queens in love with him: Llien, unattainable, secluded on the island of Avalon, or Igraine - so real, so earthly...

This is the second book in the trilogy of the French writer J.-L. Fetjen, continuation of the novel “Twilight of the Elves.”
