Soulstones Stories

A great evil has been destroyed, but what replaces it may rend the peace hoped for in two... Agnir is dead. Six months have passed, and, still grieving heavy losses, two of the fivesome struggle to maintain a foothold in the precarious politics of a recovering Serpentine court. With nearly everyone against them and the world unwilling to help the race that struck down countless souls over the course of history, they fight for each other, but their own unhealed wounds and the pressure of the crown threaten to drive a wedge between them. A boy, mastering his magic, wants more. Craving to have something more than the hum in his bones, he joins an academy which hones physical and magical skill--and runs into an old acquaintance. A noble pirate finds a girl in a dungeon--a broken girl, who doesn't remember why she's there, or what she's missing. A prodigal son seeks freedom across the sea, but fate and a red-haired wraith have other plans. And beyond them all, a mage weaves his game and searches for a storm powerful enough to sink a city... *** Cover art is not mine unless specified.

On the night of the Soulmate Ball, and the day of her eighteenth birthday, Anastasia Royal Dumont expects to meet her other half. Little did she know that she'd be matched with the King's son, and above all, a True royal. Her life changes and with it, her aspect towards all humans when she finds out her true linage from none other than the King himself. "You have a destiny that is etched in your very blood, written by your ancestors and the Goddess herself." A linage that was once thought long gone, a myth in itself. A True Pure Royal

"The Story of Druid Voyles" is a personal narrative written in the first person by a character who has experienced the loss of everything that was his home. This is not just an adventure in a fantasy world - it is a path that begins with blood and fire to become a search for himself, redemption and a new meaning. Voyles is a half-elf who was supposed to become a full-fledged druid in his tribe, but instead became the only survivor. His Valley of Souls was destroyed, his family was cut out, and the only hope for peace for the souls of his ancestors are the stolen stones that he must now find. His story is a series of trials, meetings with very companions, uncertain decisions and internal struggles. Each chapter is a new piece of the path, a new person (or not quite a person), a new choice. All this is sewn on emotions, reflections, jokes, fatigue, pain and hope. This is a book about not always being good, but staying true to yourself. About finding meaning when everything is lost. About those who do not choose to become heroes, but do not allow themselves to become monsters. Genre: fantasy with personal autobiographical elements. Style: narrative, emotionally rich, with elements of psychology. Theme: spiritual path, search for identity, combat and magical adventures, moral dilemmas, the influence of real life on role-playing games. Form: a combination of a work of art and a role-playing diary. Key idea: the rebirth of personality through incarnation as a character - a druid who brings light into the darkness.
