Book 1 in the "Adventures of a Lifetime" series.
Fire. A beacon of hope for many. A sign of civilisation and light. But for some, it is a tool for vengeance and darkness. A destructive invention that destroys all hope for salvation. This... is a tale of a father's anger and paternal despair from the loss of his daughter. This... is a story of power, vengeance, and loss.
This series will entail the hope of Kane Mournflame, the ordinary human of the group and his fellow band of party members, to help an old friend, to forgive the corrupted, to take revenge on a long-forgotten foe, and to rescue his daughter. All in the name of saving the world and destroying one of the darkest civilisations on the Material Plane. Will our hero and father prevail in his endeavours? Or will his journey be all for naught? Will Kane put aside his hatred to fight alongside one of his most bitter enemies to complete such a tremendous task? Find out by reading Vengeance and Despair in an all-new D&D-based, devastating duology, as we follow in the footsteps of a vengeful father, a redeeming traitor, a discarded noble, and a mighty barbarian.
Alongside Kane, follow along with Varrus, the drow turned good as this wayward soul returns to the path of good after a long time in his seclusion away from his old life. His story is a tale of redemption, in a life-long hatred for his kin. Read along these two compelling adventurers as they combat their darkest fears and their worst nightmares, fighting for their own freedom and the safety of their loved ones.
