"Once there was the Fantasy of the Word, and Knowledge of the Word was with the Law, and the Law was the Song of the Word."
Somewhere between fiction and magic, lies a mysterious power known as the Word: the channel of words and writing. By the Law of Wordcraft, it was the mystical art of understanding, maintaining and creating the structure of all things. Be it real matter or pure concept, it worked with the inherent power of the literal word through writing and conceiving an outlet of imagination to reality. If studied and mastered properly, even the wildest dreams were possible to conceive.
Born within a family rich with the Word's gifts, fourteen-year-old Louay Ashmoun discovers he is nothing but a bystander to his family's achievements, for he lacks the talent himself. Though he is unbothered by that fact, Louay ventures into the vast world of Lemuria to awaken his believed talent. The first book "The Song of Word" follow Louay, along with his talented twin sister Youna and a few friends made along the way, as they join the Luxorfurt University of Literature, a school that teaches all manners of subjects to whoever sought knowledge and that includes, of course, how to master the talent of the Word.
