DeFreveille, the Conqueror, is conquered. His children have the home he sought and war goes on. His friend and ally, Christophe Maides, has learned the truth of his parents' love for one another. Both men have found homes and women to love. Their children have their own battles to fight as they make their futures among friends, strangers and their fathers' enemies. Susanna ach Alun Cwmdu, daughter of the pendefig killed by the invaders and adopted daughter of Christophe Maidesone of the invading army who came to conqueror and stayed to defendhas always been aware of her worth to the men who govern her life. Though plain and disinclined to the skills of the household, her valueeven to her brother, Heilyn, who will become pendefig once Maides has defeated the boy's enemiesis indisputable among the men who seek an alliance with her mother's second husband. Only a man who loves her and is able to protect her is worthy of her in Christophe's estimation. Is Cynon Machlud, beleaguered pendefig from the north, that man? • "Always before she had seen him weakened, vulnerable, dependent on her ability to heal. She had never seen him like thisupright and vigorous. Always before he had been on his back, wounded, exhausted by battle and pain, barely able to raise a finger to defend himself from her ministrations. Here, on his feet, standing beside Christophe Maides, was a man larger than she had imagined, stronger and virile."
