In the land of Aldoria, five ancient statues, created by the gods, hold unimaginable power. For centuries, these statues have remained hidden, protected by perilous landscapes, cryptic riddles, and ancient keys. Whoever unites the statues can reshape reality itself.
Lena Everhart, a determined archaeologist, discovers the first clue to the statues' locations. Joined by a diverse group of companions-a ruthless bounty hunter, a mysterious healer, a young inventor, and a reformed thief-Lena embarks on a perilous quest to find the statues and protect their power from falling into the wrong hands.
As they navigate treacherous terrains and solve intricate puzzles, the group faces internal conflicts and formidable adversaries. Each must confront their own inner demons and make fateful decisions that will determine the destiny of Aldoria.
In this epic tale of adventure, mystery, and moral dilemmas, the true power of the statues lies not in their ability to control the world, but in the strength and resolve of those who seek them.

A Prince's Errand [PREVIEW] ✔️ | Book One of TALES OF THE AMULET
Several millennia ago a war raged between the factions of dragonkind. With their world ravaged, the Kaldean Alliance forged the Amulet of Draconic Control and the Tethering Stone, and banished their foes to other realms, saving Kalda from utter destruction. Fearing the power of the Amulet, the survivors secreted it away. But now knowledge of the Amulet has resurfaced-and in the wrong hands, war could erupt anew. Long ago, men harnessed the Channels of Power, creating tevisrals-devices capable of manifesting magic. But men weren't the only ones to accomplish such feats. Dragons crafted the most sophisticated tevisrals. These shaped the world, defining civilization of man and elf alike. Over the centuries, the people of Kalda have fallen into a dark age, where elves are estranged from men and dragons have retreated into legend. Tevisrals are scarce and men are willing to trade everything for them. But there are some who wish to bury the past, and in their lands, possessing tevisrals is tantamount to treason. Still, daring men scour the world in search of Kalda's past. One such man, the scholar Krindal, seeks an ancient order known as the Keepers of Truth and Might. He yearns for their knowledge, long feared lost. Prince Kaescis Midivar also searches for these Keepers. The assassination of his uncle, the emperor of Mindolarn, killed his hopes of peace with his empire's enemies. His empire's survival hinges upon unearthing the Keepers' secrets. An aging warrior, Cornar Dol'shir, longs to be home with his wife. But his retirement must wait, as his band of adventurers is recruited to help find the Keepers' hidden temple on the Isle of Klindala. Haunted by his tragic past, Iltar, the Son of Adrin, does not join in the search for the Keepers. Instead, he seeks to unravel the mysteries held within a volume of prophecy foretelling the advent of the Unspoken One and the return of the Crimson Eye.Complete
