Summary:
In a strange world in which talent can give birth to magic, the tormented dreams of one young woman affect the Royal Cartographer, sending him slowly mad and threatening to bring the nightmares that they share to life.

Seven centuries ago, the world was shrunk by the magic-spawned Cataclysm, which shattered the Empire into Nine Principalities and buried it in black ice. As ice and magic receded, Qiro Anturasi's genius for finding new trade routes allowed Nalenyr to prosper again. His talent yielded enormous power and wealth, but now it may cost his family their lives.
