An apocalypse, three people, a magical gemstone which could set things right, and some possibly hostile magical creatures. What could possibly go wrong?
Sana wakes up to chaos and destruction outside her bedroom window and no memories of the previous month. Isha and Adhvik are in pretty much the same situation. But when they find a gemstone which could set things right - or at the very least provide them with some answers - they are willing to stop at nothing to restore it to its holder.

The whispering stones of Eldoria
In the tranquil realm of Eldoria, the ancient stones whisper secrets, their voices a comforting hum to the Stone Weavers, guardians of the land's delicate magical balance. Young Elara, an apprentice Stone Weaver, feels a growing unease as the whispers begin to falter, their harmony disrupted by a discordant strain. When a mysterious corruption takes hold of the neighboring city of Sylvani, silencing their once vibrant Heartstone, the Stone Weaver Council tasks Elara and her steadfast companion, Kaelen, with a perilous mission. Their journey across the treacherous Obsidian Sea leads them to a city shrouded in darkness, where the Sylvani people struggle against a creeping despair. The Heartstone, the source of their magic, is choked by a malevolent force, its once radiant glow extinguished. Elara and Kaelen must navigate the treacherous political landscape of a city on the brink of collapse, uncover the source of the corruption, and restore the Heartstone's power. Along the way, they will face corrupted magical creatures, treacherous political intrigue, and the ever present danger of the corrupted magical forces. Elara must learn to master her growing powers and fully understand the whispers of the stones. Elara and Kaelen must learn to work together, and trust each other, if they are to have any hope of restoring balance to Sylvani, and to Eldoria.

(Book 5) Hayden Mackay and The Pride of Haima-Endira
"I am really sorry," I whispered, "I always knew that it was terrible, but I could never have guessed, not even in my dreams, that people of this country can cross all the limits." "Not all the people," she said, softly yet sternly, "Just a few. Others are innocent and noble." I gaped, unable to believe her. "Nazira, why do you love this country so much? Don't you realize? It's an impure dustbin, full of garbage and rotten materials." "Dustbins can be purified," she said instantly. "All we need is someone capable to clean this garbage."
