The sun was setting as Emeralda landed in a massive clearing and Blaze slowed to a stop. Alison slid off the horse’s back and they stood together. The city of Isal was massive, a proper city. Massive stone walls surrounded the city with red armored guards on the walls. An iron gate served as the […]
“Again.” The room glowed with bright purple light as the spell was cast again. Runes aligned in a circle glowed to life to an almost blinding degree. The hooded woman narrowed her eyes ignoring it as she filtered the screams out of her ears. She didn’t care about the screams of the pain, she cared […]
“Why did you stop us from helping her!” Sefirin asked his eyes wide and scales already forming over his body. “We could have saved her!” Sofie shouted and looked away. “And now we don’t know where she’s going. Or what’s going to happen to her.”

“Don’t say it Sefirin,” Silva said as she took a hard step into a pile of sand. It had long since filled her boots and the heat that assaulted her was beyond suffocating. There was no heat like this in Agrentum. The closest that she had seen in her life was when she visited her […]
