The Raven Thief
Born of the wastelands, Spheris Arnadel, a young skilled thief, finds himself subject to a twist of fate when he steals a powerful relic and becomes a Bearer — humans gifted with powers from the Gods. As a punishment for his theft, he is cast into an otherworldly realm alongside other Bearers, where he faces off against monstrous beasts and powerful enemies. Yet, in his determination to return to the Continent and save his dying mother, Spheris is hell-bent on surviving the abyssal world. Even if it means giving his body to the Dark God whose powers he had stolen... even if it means losing all of his humanity.
• The Five Karterug Princes
In the town of art, crafts and music known as Sperton of the Fifth Wing, the bastion lifted sky high with its decorations of greens, golds and solid white. It was morning, and the early morning sun casted its golden rays over the beautiful castle, making the stone walls glow with the soft warmth of the dawn.
Outside, there was breeze stirring the trees, the birds were singing their first melodies of the day and maidens walked about, sweeping the leaves that had fallen at night.
Inside one of the royal rooms, lavishly adorned with deep maroon tapestries and golden accents, four of the five Princes of the Fifth Wing sat in comfort. They all had white hair which was a signature trait of their royal family, coming from a strong Bloodline of Karterugs.
They were also all wearing expensive, regal clothing — suits of rich fabrics trimmed in silver and embroidered with the symbols of their Wing.
