The drums of war are beating in Koya. By the Light's will, the Red Cloaks shall cross the sea under His holy banner, the ancient homeland will be restored, the slaughtered ancestors will be avenged, and the damned occupants shall all perish.

By the Light's will, the Third Crossing shall happen.

Akira will be one of the heroes of the upcoming holy war; that's the seer's promise to his mother. He will outshine his fellow mages, don the red cloak, and join the Light's own soldiers. He will bring victory to his people and honor to his family, clearing its name from his father's shame.

Or that's what Akira thinks. Because seers can be devious sometimes.

From the rural side of Koya enters Natsu as she assumes her late husband's place and takes the smuggling underworld by storm. Her shocking rise provokes not only the Koyan navy, but also her rivals, and a fierce war ensues on land and sea. A war she can only win if she shakes hands with the smugglers' deadliest enemies; the Red Cloaks themselves.

For honor and coin, Akira and Natsu will forge a shaky alliance, both knowing that one of them will eventually have to betray the other. Trust could be a grave mistake in these dark times of war. If you wish to be the last one standing, you must be ready to be the first to stab in the back.All Rights Reserved

The Myth - The Fading Eden by KatarzynaGawronska1

According to one of myths in the Universe, the God of Chaos, Azahar, united with the mother of stars, Thilija. From the merging of darkness and light, their daughter Shelaya was born, who, as a demigoddess, was granted the unique gift of creation from the Source of Being-a neon river of magical essence. Shelaya created Eden. This secluded place in the Universe became their happy sanctuary until Thilija's death. Seeing her mother's light fade away in Azahar's arms, Shelaya, in despair, fled into Space-Time, haunted by the thought that her father was to blame for Thilija's death. Meanwhile, Eden began to wither, slowly turning into a barren wasteland, consuming every spark of energy in its path like a plague. Tired of running, Shelaya established the Crystal Kingdom, ruled by strict laws of order, obedience, and lack of empathy. People, granted access to the Source of Being, became ideal warriors and healers; men wielded magical flame and were immune to pain, while women received healing abilities. Each blessing from the Spirit of Milites enhanced their powers but also tightened the bonds on their souls. The Kingdom, surrounded by a high mountain chain, was completely sealed off from the outside world and the faithless. Inquisitors and Priestesses sent on crusades, burning the submission to Queen Shelaya into the hearts of the uninitiated. However, beneath the seemingly happy and prosperous Kingdom, a rebellion against her rule was brewing. The unfolding war between Darkness and Light, ruthless lawfulness, and the freedom of the heart inevitably drew in the main characters: Emir Cavalleys, an ambitious low-born Guardian; Seku Val'Larnez, a prince of a powerful Elven house; and Nicola Smith, a 28-year-old from rural Canada. Tasked with saving the Universe threatened by the spreading wasteland, they set out for the Crystal Kingdom.

A Day of Sorrow, The Tales of Old by FreeReinVikings

A day like any other, turned to blood and misery in the blink of an eye. The soul devourers had been withheld for thousands of years, the residents beyond Riverin's walls growing comfortable. Their ignorance could be their downfall as everything crumbles. Even the veterans aren't prepared for an assault, underestimating their opponent. Carnade, born to another land, has found a home in Riverin. He's always known how great a threat the devourers were, but he never thought their first strike would be Riverin. Now he has to choose between protecting his family or the people he swore himself to. Derosai was born and raised in Riverin, dedicating her life to abolishing the soul devourer race from the face of Alatine. Everything she worked toward. Everything her and her husband planned could be torn away. Her husband believes their son to be the key to ending the devourer blight and if he perishes, there won't be anyone to stop the second dark war. Alithium was born to another world, frozen and far from Riverin. Unlikely events destroy everything she holds dear, tearing her away from the only home she's ever known by thrusting her into a foreign land. One of heat and despair. She soon finds out how unwelcoming man can be, taken into a city on the brink of destruction. Her only goal is to escape. Their problems, man or devourer... it didn't concern her. Their faces, all the death, and all the screams. I can still see and hear them to this day - Crow Akroth This is A Day of Sorrow, By Dominik Sorensen. I hope you enjoyed the introduction, the first three chapters. If you did, you can find the full novel on amazon. The link is in my LinkTree in our bio. But, I do want to advise you to read (A Promise of Blood) before this novel. It takes place before A Day of Sorrow and is quite relevant to understand certain points of this novel. You can also find the order to read my novels in our bio.

Kraals and Magic by Ensii99

It's thousand of years after the pact war. A war that changed the balance of the world. Such that, in one part of the world magic reigns supreme, and the other part lacks; thousands of kingdoms and a plain where a man can run forever. Woka Firg, chieftain of Masakar, a village in the south of the unending plain is frustrated by his gods. Who demands cruel sacrifices and seldom gives fortune; who watches with folded arms as the floods take their homes. Woka is further unsettled as a wizard tells him his kraal will not survive the season___ as the flood from the north is unstoppable. Woka and his family must find ways to survive. At war or in foreign land.... a plain man is never out of his depth. Ike an ageless assassin wants to save himself; wants a god that will grant him mercy for what he did in the past. Ifeoma and her grandson, Tooka, embarks on a journey to stop a world from falling and prevent history from repeating itself. Your votes and comments will be appreciated.
