Gethoria is a village surrounded by multiple arched columns. It has a curse: All those born in the village die if they leave sight of the columns. Yeeson, the descendant of a Pillar Lord has enlisted the aid of mutated insects known as Kite creatures to aid in her endeavor to save the people of Gethoria from an approaching army that is considered unbeatable. This is a prequel to The Curse of the Gray Fortress. If you've read Curse of the Gray Fortress you may want to read this before reading Curse of the Sister Seed although it isn't necessary.
