150 years ago, the skies above the eastern continent blackened with taint and a star from its domain seemed to fall and crash into the earth, rattling and contaminating the impact zone. From the mist of the collapse flew a nightmarish and hungry mass of beasts and abominations - later designated "the Shadow Herd" - which spread out wherever they wished, destroying anything and anyone they could get their talons on. Within a few years, the Ahterilion Empire that ruled the continent was crushed into smithereens and the rubble from its extermination fled to every other corner, to avoid further bloodshed. Though the Shadow Herd eventually diminished, remnants of it has lingered for well above a century and in its wake, traits of the dreaded Woerdinn has been sighted upon people, a brand which can be both boon and doom.
With a century of opportunity, life eventually regrew and took back much of the land, but it remains broken and splintered. The ten previous provinces of the Empire live without proper lines, but the provincial rulers which it created - their Pillars of Concord - remain in spirit, if not exactly in name, clawing upon the leftovers, waging war and exploiting the terrain, some with the desire to emulate the power of old.

Eyren grew up with heroic tales of the brave Rittmark, the reputed knightly order of her northern lands, and the deeds they would perform for people in need. But after years of struggling with training and trials, she came to realize that the stories had been exaggerated, their honor a guise to promote themselves to the disparate lords that rule the provinces, being no better than common mercenaries. Disillusioned by their lies and determined not to be roped in any further, she left and started roaming the continent, wishing to provide what assistance she could to the lost and broken. On her itinerant path, she will find a solution to the Shadow Herd's menace which yet infests every corner of the earth.

Embrace the mystery, discover more. "I would sacrifice pieces of my flesh and still be considered selfish for not giving my bones."

He gave me a feline smile as he stalked toward me. I backed away until my heels hit the stall wall and he took advantage of my surprise by stepping in to me, his body a mere whisper from mine. "That's good, Evelyn," he murmured and brushed a strand of hair behind my ear. My heart was pounding and I knew my face was betraying everything I was feeling. Damn him. I didn't want to feel this excited clench in my stomach. I didn't want to feel this longing for him. "What are you doing?" My voice was shakier than I would've hoped and far too breathy. "Something I've wanted to do for a very long time." *************************************************** Two hundred years after a powerful sorceress eliminated all modern technology and most of Earth's population, the people left behind live happily with no electricity, no motorized machinery - no advanced technology of any kind. However, many of them now possess magical gifts that were once considered myth. Evelyn Kentala, a talented horse trainer, is an empath and uses her gift to understand animals. Her abilities don't allow her to know the emotions of people - or so she thinks. When Broderick Ryan, the next leader of his and Evelyn's province, returns home after being gone for five years, Evelyn discovers she's much more than an empathic horse trainer. Frightening and rare abilities begin to manifest and she's left reeling when she discovers why. Evelyn and Broderick find themselves drawn to each other as they discover the secrets of her unknown past and fight to keep themselves, and their province, safe from those who wish them harm.
