Goldenhorde Stories

A small excerpt from a story I've started writing. Draconia is about an alternate history starting in 1347 A.D. where various normal and fantastical events change the course of history. Dragons have emerged from the Northern tip of Scandinavia, razing land and slaughtering anyone they come across. They push further and further outward, threatening the existence of humanity itself. The Komnenian Restoration never ended, and the Byzantine Empire now controls all of Anatolia, the Holy Land, Egypt and Sicily. Tunis is a friendly satellite state of the empire. With Tunisian help, the Crusaders pushed the Moors out of Iberia much earlier, while Morocco was unified with Tunis. The Russians pushed into the Baltic while the Golden Horde pushed into Russian land. The Romanians and Rus were unified through a peaceful transition of power. Ireland, Scotland and England are in a constant state of war with each other. The Holy Roman Empire is strong and centralized, but seeks to push into Italy for legitimacy as the true Roman Empire. The Turks, having been pushed out of Anatolia, now seek to consolidate their power in Persia. With dragons wiping out all opposition without any effort and purifying the lands they conquer, all the warring nations of Europe have declared peace and formed a coalition to try and defeat the draconian menace. Despite this the dragons continue wiping out the armies of Europe, and continue to push further and further south. It looks like nothing can stop them. Can humanity hope to survive this onslaught?

Book Two. In the aftermath of the 'Gold War,' as many call it, only six countries remain. Twelve years of peace go by, with countries living in harmony and happiness. Even the ones who were most affected. But in the Realm of the Dead, countries are plotting revenge. As well as relatives of those who fell. The boundaries between life and death are broken, with costly prices. New and old are pitted together. Fire and water. Death and life. Orange and Navy.
