August's journey begins with his typical hallucinations, an unusual encounter with bullying flowers, and an earthquake that's far from ordinary. Sierra, his school crush and friend, guides him into an alternate dimension parallel to the one he knows. There, he discovers a missing piece of himself, an aspect of his identity he never knew existed, shedding light on the source of his random hallucinations.
Unveiling a secret world, August learns he is a Quintessence, a rare magician belonging to the Quadrumvirs, a hidden race dedicated to guarding nature beyond mortal perception. They wield control over the classical elements-Water, Fire, Earth, and Wind. However, August's uniqueness lies in his ability to manipulate the elusive 5th element, the Aether.
As the narrative unfolds, August faces a ticking clock, with only a month before catastrophic events threaten the entire continent. Yellowstone looms on the brink of eruption, Florida faces potential obliteration, and Canada teeters on the edge of a return to the Ice Age.
"The Ring of Elements" is a tale of a boy plagued by peculiar hallucinations, who discovers the extraordinary reason behind his experiences. His uncommon background propels him beyond the mortal realm as he grapples with the imminent threat of those seeking his demise.
|Book 1 of the Spirit Trilogy|
Serena's life is about as normal as it gets - for an Alkanine at least - aside from her, slightly patriotic mother and obvious lack of fighting ability, for a citizen of Yanrie. Its pretty good for her, especially when her sister returns home from the front lines of the Zaross war right before her 15th birthday, the best present she could have.
But upon meeting a boy from the neighboring kingdom of Miral she finds that the week leading up to her birthday may be a bit...chaotic, to say the least.
(I fixed up the description. Because it sucked and now it doesn't...for now, let me look back on this in...say a month? And it'll suck again)
Big thanks to @CateCandora12 for the epic cover!
