Here is what Shea learns from strange Allanon, the historian of the species, philosophy, and, - some murmur - the follower of magic arts! Once more Darkness is likely to cover the world. According to Allanon, the only weapon against the King-Wizard and his malefic hordes would be legendary Epée of Shannara. But this one can be carried only by one heir to the House of Shannara.
