"They are bleeding us of every right we've ever earned."
Escaping was just the beginning.
Away from the Sapphire Court, Elian attempts to lead the life he left behind, but his ghosts cannot be forgotten. With old, vengeful enemies hiding in the shadows, and far darker monsters roaming his mind, Elian soon realises that the memories that make you cannot be forgotten.
Alensia itself is readying for war, sides are being chosen, and bonds made at birth are about to be ripped apart forever. The Faven's attacks on the court become more merciless by the day, and as their ambitions grow larger all three courts are placed in the firing line. Then a journey to the far reaches of Alensia reveals new worlds that were believed to have been swallowed by dust an era ago, and from them rise armies that could win the war before it even begins.
Within the Courts, a dangerous game continues, with new players that threaten to steal a throne, and old ones who threaten to annihilate Sapphire for their mistakes. Amongst it all are those that Elian left behind, suddenly thrust into a world that they never knew existed, and into a war they do not know how to fight. And when tragedy strikes, one's world is turned upside down forever...
Amidst it all, a prophecy long forgotten inches closer to being fulfilled:
When the last son of Sapphire turns to the fire's shade, only then will Ruby and Diamond fall...

The Somnus Enigma
Synopsis Elian has always walked the thin edge between sleep and waking. Born with the forbidden gift to step inside the dreams of others, he treats it as a secret refuge-a place where he can scatter nightmares, weave comfort, and whisper hope into restless minds. But gifts such as his are never without cost. Lately, the village has begun to change. Friends awaken with memories they never lived. Strangers claim to have shared the same impossible dreams. And in the dead of night, Elian begins to see cracks in the fabric of reality-shadows that slip through when no one is watching. What should have been harmless illusions now leave scars that linger long after morning light. When a cloaked order arrives, seeking dreamwalkers to harness their power, Elian learns that he is not alone-and that his ability is far more dangerous than he imagined. The dream-realm, vast and hungry, is bleeding into the waking world, and every choice he makes within it ripples outward like a storm. To save his people, Elian must descend deeper into the labyrinth of dreams than he ever dared, where time unravels, voices whisper lies, and nightmares wear the faces of those he loves most. But as reality bends and fractures around him, one question haunts his every step: what if the world he is trying to protect is only another dream-and he is the one who needs to wake?
