The Maps of Seven and the Trinket of Iris
Now that he has the Serum from Elon's Crest, with the help of Mernaline, a mermaid descendant of the people of Mer, Klever needs to drink the Serum of Umelum, which is the blood of the immortal Oracle, Lady Comadina. But first he must travel to the far north where her successor, Lady Atenda, resides in the realm of Truthe at the sacred Palace of Orali. On his journey he will face challenges from those that have sided with the evil sorceress.
Along the way he makes friends that become companions. He will meet leaders of armies, and the twelve tribes kings that are descended from the ones of old. Some, allies that will bestow gifts that will help Klever along the way...and others that will curse him, and set trickery against him, even in his darkest hour. Along with the twelve kings, Klever will meet and be guided by seven Elders of the Age, Watchers of time given a potion made from the Arora Opiate flower, common to fields of lemon grass near the Fraidis Mountains. The flower is used to strengthen the quality and prolong human life, but only lasts twenty five years at a time beyond three quarters of a century old.
Klever will have to follow the Maps of Seven that will lead him through many different realms in his world Earthaine, and use the trinket of Iris to travel safely, and in the right direction. The Elders will help guide Klever to each destination on his three month journey, acting as hosts of refuge so that Klever can remain hidden away from the witch, Gwyniah, who is in pursuit of the Serum also. If she gets ahold of it, she will have ultimate power and would be indestructible; no living army could defeat her. With king Septimus, an unruly king and traitor, Gwyniah has access to nearly eliminable power. Klever must save his twin from the fate of death, and to do so, he must reach the north before she begins to cross the veil of immortality, for he must drink the Serum of Umelum in tandem if they are to survive. If they die, so does everyone else.
