The Defender - Number 2: Stoneford

Allan has moved to the dukedom of Stoneford to continue his work as the masked mage known as “The Defender.”

In Stoneford he learns that a man named Malloria has become an advisor to Lord Jason by claiming he can see the future. One of this Malloria's predications was that doom would befall Lord Jason's youngest son Kenneth. A few weeks later, Kenneth died of sickness.

Allan knows magic doesn't work that way, at least not with most knowledge of casting spells gone. He suspects that this Malloria has a darker purpose behind his claim of seeing the future.Who is this mysterious Malloria? What is he plotting? Can the Defender stop his scheme?
