Opis
From out of blackness they come, emerging from the depths of the realms’
seas upon a surging tide of magic. These merciless raiders do not seek merely
to slaughter or enslave, however, for they are the Idoneth Deepkin – they have
come to take their victims’ very souls. They bring with them the magic of their
kingdoms, an ethersea of roiling currents and crushing pressures. In their
passing, the Idoneth leave ruin, death and sleepers that will never awaken –
victims whose souls have been stolen. Retreating beneath the waves, the Idoneth
return to the utter isolation of the depths.
