(Hope you enjoy this Percy Jackson and Magnus Chase fanfiction. It's kinda jumbled up between them, and I hope you have fun reading!) My name is Leon Brooks. I never asked to be special, and I never was. Until that faithful day, when the storm hit, and I was sent to the Mountains of Despair. I never knew my journey would start with a huge storm destroying my village, neither did I expect lightning to strike me. But I knew one thing for sure. My journey would be ten times harder than those to things combined.

For Claudette and Emile Borde, living in the city of Ayres and working on their parents' farm has never been enough. Influenced by stories of the past, in which magic was real and the dragons still lived, the siblings have always dreamed of leaving their city behind and embarking on their own adventures. But as squires training to become full-fledged knights, they must renounce magic, for it was magic that nearly tore the world apart during the old wars. When the carnival comes to the city, Claudette meets Aeonia, and the two become fast friends. But Aeonia is no simple girl playing at fortune telling-she can wield magic, and it's both breathtaking and volatile. Torn between upholding her duty as a squire and keeping a secret for her friend, Claudette must decide where her loyalties lie. Is this the adventure she's always craved, or is she dooming her city and her loved ones by remaining silent? Set in the same world as The Fading Dusk, By the Morning Light is a brand new adventure by author Melissa Giorgio that sets up the third book in the Smoke and Mirrors series.
