The Elfish kingdom of Riko had enjoyed peace for almost a thousand years before unrest began to roil through its capital city. A cult has awoken in the depths of the slums, altering the way the magical forces of the Elves have been used for centuries. The result is a new, different form of magic, a magic that threatens the upper classes and seeks to divide the two royal brothers.

Sacri Absol has aligned himself with this new power, and as the prince of Riko and heir to the throne, his choice is seen as a danger to the stability of the kingdom.

Feli Absol, his younger brother, wants the cultic threat eliminated from the kingdom and his brother prevented from changing the customs of the past.

Their decisions will put them in conflict with one another, a conflict that will seek to tear the kingdom apart. 

Two brothers.

Two forms of magic.

One kingdom.

There isn't room in Riko for the both of them. 

A Telassar History novella. No knowledge of The Trials of Telassar saga is necessary to read this book. A standalone novel.

Driven by a ravenous hunger for forbidden knowledge, kasik, an amateur thief, must infiltrate the revered Citadel , a bastion of power where magic is controlled by those in power. Meanwhile, Shivi must navigate a treacherous labyrinth of shifting alliances, backstabbing rivals, and the insidious whispers of ancient evils. Each sibling stood at a precipice.

Kael Valtherion, crown prince of the oppressive Valtherion kingdom, hides a secret of his own: magic born of light, a power that shouldn't exist in his bloodline. When dreams of an ancient prophecy and an unshakeable pull lead him to Luminaris, he discovers Irelia, the shadow to his light. Bound by destiny, Irelia and Kael must navigate a fractured world faced with war, unravel their families' dark legacies, and confront their intertwined magic. As enemies close in and tension simmers between them, they must decide if they can trust each other, or if their powers will tear the realm, and themselves, apart.
