The Prophecy
A prophecy foretold . . . the birth of a messiah must save a world in peril.
Tasked with delivering a message from the deities he has always revered, Somers de Fontaine finds himself caught up in an intrigue that is not of his making. The Velosian Gods are now bored with the existence of the very people they’ve given life to. They have decreed that their subjects must find humility amongst the threat of war.
The Scholl and the Denmarden have united against Velosia in hopes of gaining a power that has been spoken of for centuries. A magic that is said to be unlike any other. They covet the thought of embracing it in the hopes of achieving an end to their own means.
Somers’ trepidation grows as he realizes that the gods were right in their assumptions. As word of the Queen’s condition spreads far and wide, many wonder as to whether the child is truly the savior they’ve been waiting for. Whether they like it or not, a messiah will be born.
Though the child has yet to be born, Somers takes it upon himself to protect her life at all cost. His loyalty belongs to the King, as well as to the one who will one day change existence as they know it. To save her and his beloved world, he must make a choice that just might prove to be his undoing. Nevertheless, he’ll do everything possible to ensure that the prophecy is fulfilled, once and for all.
Tyale
Her birth has been foretold. She would save, as well as destroy.
Trials and tribulations litter the path Tyale Poshpot must walk on. She’s determined in fulfilling a prophecy to which she was born. A prophecy she’s not sure was meant for her. War is coming, and battles needs to be fought, even if it means losing the one thing she’s loved the most.
Never having known who she truly is, or where’s she come from, Tyale will soon discover secrets that will shatter her innermost beliefs. Tasked with setting all wrongs to right within the kingdom of Velosia, she embarks on a journey that will test her mettle every step of the way.
Her ordinary life is nothing compared to what she’ll soon face. If she’s to succeed in her endeavors, she’ll need to place her trust in those she meets along the way. Only then, can she restore order amongst the chaos surrounding her father’s beloved kingdom.
Marius
His destiny has never been his own.
From an early age, Marius Pendragon has lived to serve the kingdom of Velosia. It’s the only life he’s known, and he’s enjoyed every minute of it. In his mind, he has everything he could ever ask for and more.
When circumstances arise, and he’s forced to confront the secrets of a past he’s known nothing about, Marius wonders if his life will ever be the same again. The presence of a woman cited to be his supposed betrothed further strains his already hectic life. He refuses to accept the fact that things must change in order to serve his people to the best of his ability.
His unique shape-shifting abilities have garnered the enemy’s interest, and they’re intent on having him for their own. Tasked with protecting the realm of Velosia and the princess herself, he must find it within himself to reconcile his new life with his old one.
The enemy draws ever closer, intent wreaking havoc on the city’s beloved citizens. Marius must now do his best to do what’s right. Acceptance, however, is hard to come by. Bound by the duties set before him, he must face his greatest challenge yet–himself.
