In a family torn apart by poverty and violence Hekat is no more than an unwanted mouth to feed worth only a few coins from a passing slave trader.
But Hekat was not born to be a slave. For her a different path has been chosen.
It is a path that will take her from stinking back alleys to the house of her God from blood-drenched battlefields to the glittering palaces of Mijak.
This is the story of Hekat precious and beautiful.
