There is a whole world Azora has yet to discover. That is our world. The times have changed, humans have changed and somewhere along the way, they forgot about the magical races, forcing them to go into hiding.

But then, life gives her a chance to enter the world of humans, and to do that, she has to let them change her in ways she never thought were possible. In a school created for hidden races, she is learning how to assimilate insensibly into the human world. There are many lessons to learn, many mythical creatures to get to know, but the one thing she never dreamed of is that one homework assignment might change someone's life forever. With her friends by her side, Azora will let her curiosity take her on a journey of discovery, to unveil the biggest mystery in the history of her race.

BOOK ONE OF THE FADING EMBERS SERIES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- "The embers fade, and the Day of the Lightless shall be upon us." For the longest time, a lonely continent shrouded by Mist was all the nine races of Jordarys ever knew. They knew the Mist was to be feared. Those who were swallowed by the Mist were never seen again. The Mist birthed terrible monsters that rose from the seas, plaguing their land. The gods bestowed the inhabitants of Jordarys with a gift, the Primeval Flames, to fight the scourge of the Mist for as long as they have. However, the flames are dwindling. The inevitable day where the embers sputter and die is encroaching upon them with every rising and setting of the sun. When that day comes, the Mist shall swallow this last remaining bastion of the world whole. Not all would stand idle as the storm brews. The fate of Jordarys teeters perilously in the balance as everyone, from monarchs to assassins to scholars and warriors, fights for their survival. "For only the heir of cinders will inherit the world when the embers finally fade." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- A collaboration between VeryBigMess and @Fiona_jessie.
