Elin Styrmir needs to make a good marriage match, so she can help her young, fifteen years old, fourth cousin, Arick Styrmir, to become the emperor. The problem is that her first cousin in line for the throne has not only proven himself in battle, but also has a lot of powerful nobles on his side, but he's brutal and a tyrant. So finding someone who will help her by going into battle in the name of her cousin and turning the nobles in their favor isn't going to be easy.Gunnarr Cato is a man known to most in the empire as the Shadow General. Although, no one knows his true identity, many wouldn't think that this man from a small territory in the far reaches of the empire, was the strongest and wealthiest man ever known. However, his siblings have had enough of him endangering his life in battles, and decided that what he needs is to get married, and they already have someone in mind, the emperor's niece, Elin Styrmir.
