The Dream Ceremony is the moment every young person accepts a Lord's patronage in the form of a Legacy.
For some, this simply means they become better farmers or axe-wielders. For others, it marks the beginning of a long journey. On his nineteenth birthday, Leland Silver was offered a portion of a Lord's power. The only issue… it was from a Lord no one had ever heard of—the Lord of Curses. Teamed with his two best friends—a Legacy of the Berserker and a Legacy of the Chameleon—Leland must learn quickly if he wishes to get anywhere in this newly opened world. Together, the trio will lead a relatively normal young adult life: protecting caravans, killing mana-lions, learning to play the harmonica, and forging contracts with gods. You know, the usual things nineteen-year-olds get up to.
