Author Description

On the world of Illusar in the isolated, desert land of Kolmothra, Dracolloran Thalavis, dark wizard, dragon breeder, High Priest and leader of the most bloodthirsty sect of the Arctosian cult known as the Alob Gozell, lays out the final details of a stratagem to invade and conquer the Free Lands of Ramavria with his army of the undead and trained dragons. Far to the East, in Dracolloran’s projected path, lies Arbenlo, the first city of the peaceful Northern Territories. Captain Bellhom Evod, retired knight of the Southern kingdom of Renwar, and Arbenlonian spy, Wedell Anagod, have taken refuge in Arbenlo along with three young gypsies after learning of the evil uprising in Kolmothra and fending off a posse of undead Kolmothran soldiers on the Nomlian Plains. Soon after, they leave with a company of initiates to further assess the situation in Kolmothra, but first must convince the powerful wizard, Winlood Merriban, to accompany them on their crusade. Dracolloran is sent away by his god, Arctos, to confront an old enemy. This task leads Dracolloran on a personal journey of introspection and discovery that nudges him closer to his fate. As Bellhom and his company make their way west toward Kolmothra, they find that the path is laden with obstacles to overcome as not only their own fates, but the fates of all in the free world hang in the balance. The two moons of Illusar grow ever closer in a celestial backdrop that could mean the end to all things when they inevitably meet.
