Armed with truth, Bremen leads the battle in the Westland. The Warlock Lord never could face the truth that he had died centuries before, and the Sword would force that truth on him. The Sword is created by truth of existence, the only thing remaining to the shades of former Druids. Bremen knows that only magic can fight magic, so he devises a plan to create a magical weapon to destroy the Warlock Lord: the Sword of Shannara. As a result, the council simply didn't trust him. Bremen had been cast from the Druid Council because he had an interest in magic, now forbidden since the disaster that turned the Druid Brona into the Warlock Lord. Needless to say, his caveat went unheeded.
The only survivors are the followers of Bremen, an outcast Druid who continued to study the mystic arts and tried to warn the council before it was too late. Brona's first target is Paranor, the home of the Druids who defeated him during the First War of the Races. He is now stronger than ever, gathering spirits from the netherworld and a massive Troll army under his banner. Horrified by the consequences of the First War of the Races, the Druids at Paranor have stopped studying the arcane arts and have turned to the sciences of the Old World.īut Brona, now the Warlock Lord, thought to have died in the First War of the Races, has come to make a new war on the Races. Many famous characters from the series, and their ancestors, appear in this story.
First King of Shannara, a 1996 novel by Terry Brooks, is a prequel to Brooks' The Sword of Shannara, set during the Second War of the Races.
