Elias Veynor, Chief Judge of Garensway, is summoned to a haunted courthouse where the ghosts of those he condemned demand a retrial. One by one, the spirits accuse him of cruelty and blindness, until his daughter Clara, long thought missing, appears among the dead. She reveals she died branded as a traitor’s daughter, and her testimony shatters him. Cast into a realm of trials, Elias confronts those he wronged, his late wife, and finally his own ruthless self. Choosing mercy over fear, he earns release through Clara’s forgiveness. Returned to life, Elias renounces pride and seeks redemption among his people.
