So....

We didn't really get a happy ending after "The Burning Tide", So I was foolishly hoping to see where our four heroes where now and how their friendship, their family and their overall lives where now.
But they don't get a moment's rest.

After Zerif and the Wyrm took control over (most) of the Greencloaks and forced them to fight the rest of the world, their friends and families. It, of course doesn't come as a surprise that the rest of the world doesn't trust the greencloaks anymore.
Even though our four heroes, the Redcloaks and a whole lot of other people destroyed Zerif and the Wyrm the world is in distrust.

The Greencloaks are hunted and put on trial for crimes they did under the influence of the Wyrm. They are blamed for the death of the Zhongese Emperor when he gets murdered by imposters.

I think the Oathbound are responsible for the emperor's death, or even Princess Song. Although I'm a big fan of Anka, I can't shake the feeling that something is wrong. Somehow the Oathbound keep finding our heroes and Worthy is trying to hard to be "worthy" of their trust. So I think Anka is the traitor.

Also, Shane loved Abeke...
