==Plot introduction==
''Amber and Ashes'' is set in [[Krynn]] shortly after the death of [[Takhisis]] at the end of the [[War of Souls]]. Magic is back, and so are the gods. But the gods are vying for supremacy, and the war has caused widespread misery, uprooting entire nations and changing the balance of power on [[Ansalon]].

The mysterious warrior-woman Mina, brooding on her failure and the loss of her goddess, makes a pact with evil in a seductive guise. As a strange vampiric cult spreads throughout the fragile world, unlikely heroes—a wayward monk and a kender who can communicate with the dead—join forces to try to uproot the cause of the growing evil.

It begins with [[Chemosh]] talking to himself in an abandoned temple about his plans to rule the pantheon and obtaining living servants as opposed to the dead.  Shortly after, Mina and [[Galdar]] are seen. Mina is grieving the death of Takhisis and is about to kill herself when Chemosh intervenes and makes her his lover. It is then that the plot to create the [[List of Dragonlance creatures#Beloved of Chemosh|Beloved of Chemosh]] begins.
