I started writing this book at the age of fourteen as a pass time, but as I wrote more I began to love the people I had created. It took me a long time to write this, but by the end of secondary school it was complete. I only heard of this site recently and only after I got my book published. However, all I even wanted was to share my book, my story. If you want to read something that comes from the soul then I invite you with open arms to read my creation. I love it so... and I hope you will too. Addition note is that the first paragraph is simply an introduction to one character, you really need to keep reading into the second and third chapters to see who everyone is and such forth. So please do read up 'til then, comments and votes will be equally welcomed. Thank you :) __________________________________________________________ Behind His Scarf follows the two new students of Kaiun High School.

Oscar grew violent, ruthless even making him an indirect threat that grew to hate the royals. Even then, years later, he found himself competing to protect the king's daughter.

Humanity is riddled with tales of happiness, grandeur, loss, and despair. Life is akin to an adventure of sorts, so every person has a story to tell And, over the milennia, I imagine that if the earth could talk, we would begin to see it as one vast library. But of all things, these tales, happening in relatively distant places and cultures, bear one common trait. They all happen under one sky.

Testimonials: "Probably one of my favorite books I've read to date. Brilliantly complex, adoringly rendered and quizzically intense. A must read and one I plan to revisit, and share!" - Amgwatts, Wattpad Reader "This has to be one of the most original and well written novels I have had the pleasure to read, on Wattpad and in general. It was captivating, interesting, immersive and above all, fantastic. I was left in awe of the beings, history and world you created. It was never dull, dry or predicable and it was a nice change from what seems to be the ever popular teen romance with vampires or werewolves or 'bad boys that are actually romantic good boys.' In the end it was a very pleasant surprise." -IridescentLies, Wattpad Reader http://dawnoftheepoch.weebly.com
