But will she become overwhelmed by the seductive whispers of demons and specters from the abyss promising even greater powers in exchange for terrible commitments?With the untethered pursuit of magical supremacy comes profound corruption-one that will echo through the ages to found the very Cruor Academy of Magical Arts joined centuries later by sisters Cassandra and Selene Leclair.

The Elder Witches unveils the shadowy genesis of the infamous Cruor Coven before they dominated magic itself through generations of tyranny to come. But sparks once ignited can blaze redeeming lights or raze all remaining goodness to the ground.
