The Immortal League of Women are a powerful band of Immortals who have guarded the mystical Tapestry for thousands of years. The Tapestry functions as a depository for the Immortals fondest memories (allowing them to take respite within their past) and a prison for Immortals who defy the rules of the clan. When the outlaw, Robert de Baudricourt, betrays the race by arranging the murder of Joan of Arc, a tear appears in the fabric of time and space. The magics holding the barrier between the dimensions has been deteriorating ever since. The League must now race against time to save Joan, restore her sanity and restore the Tapestry before time and space bleed into each other. But Robert has his own plan. For him, the reign of The League of Women is over and vows to shift the guardianship of the Tapestry to himself by killing the women, impregnating an Immortal woman and siring an heir. Joan is his target.
