And with their uncle, the creator of a revolutionary device, missing from the scene, the Steeles find themselves in a game of wits against Davao's smartest group of thieves. Following a plan to take credit away from the Elites for their disappearance, Marguerite and Wesley soon realize that the Elites' influence goes beyond just the criminal world....

The Sorcerer reappeared in a hall of the castle. He needed to be away from the Swordbearers' magic-although he was ashamed to admit it, the forces he had come in contact with were more powerful than he had first thought. He'd been confident that, since the Swordbearers were young, they wouldn't know their power enough to wield it effectively against his experienced magic. It took about five minutes for him to work off the freezing spell then, shivering, he made his way down the hall of the castle and, muttering mysterious words, took the arrow out of his chest. His shoulder ached with every step, and he chanted under his breath to reverse the effects of his burn. The Magician's meeting with the Lords and Ladies of the Middle Ground had probably reached the end of feasting and was moving on to more important matters. In the meeting room tables were overturned, food and drinks were splattered on the floor, and well- the place was a general disaster. Isirien stopped in his tracks. "I sense your presence," he said. "Come out of hiding." "My, you've changed brother," a female voice said as someone in a black hood appeared. "I can't hide from you like I used to. But neither can you hide from me." "Soul Thief," Isirien said with dread of recognition. "Why are you here?" She drew back her hood, revealing her pale and dead features. Her eyes were empty and ghostly hollow. "Allow me to show you. I escaped the tombs where the Three Swordbearers imprisoned me. But the descendants are arising."

We live in a world where Christianity is mistaken for a cult. As the second coming of Christ approaches, many are tested, many have failed on this journey and many are being recruited in God's army. God has started calling and is now choosing. Will the fewer chosen be among the fewest of the faithful? This is the story of Gray Mitchell. He is just but all of us before we knew Christ: a troublemaker, and a rebellious foul-mouthed individual. But what happens when God gives Him the encounter of a lifetime? He repents. But through his journey, many circumstances rain on his parade: persecutions, depression, tested friendships and more. This story is based on true to life events with a little sprinkle of fiction.
