.Elementals.
Humans were weak and insignificant in the other races eyes. But somehow, they live through the harshest winters, the hottest summers, the deadliest plagues, and the longest famines. All because of a few special people with an innate capacity; others needed to learn to harvest from nature if they could even do it. With these individuals, kingdoms and queendoms rose from the ashes, and the humans weren't seen as inferior anymore. One of these queendoms sat higher than the rest because of one of these special individuals. -------------------------------------------------- Books in this series: Cryptic 1st book - Elementals - Completed 1st book other pov - Eyes Of Void - Completed 2nd book - Dragon's Legacy - Completed 2.5th book (same world, other place/characters) - Silent Flight - Completed 3rd book - The Shadow Knight - Completed 3.5th book (takes place between 'shadow knight' and 'spark from before') - Humanity's Hubris - Hiatus/being written 4th book (written after the 5th but fits here in the timeline for 4th) - "Just a crow" - Hiatus/being written 5th book - A Spark From Before - Completed 6th book - ??? - Draft -------------------------------------- I HAVE NO MONEY!!!

When Magic Was Discovered
The world fell to its knees when magic was discovered. The strange source of energy attached itself to a fraction of the worlds population, who named themselves Spellbinders. Even though the power was a marvel and inspiring to see fiction come to life, many Spellbinders used their powers to cause chaos and destruction. It wasn't long before they were able to topple governments and turn the world into a wasteland. What was left of the old world's military and those who hated magic, banded together to form the Dispersion to fight back. After decades of wars, the world came to a time period called The Settling. Spellbinders were hidden among the everyday people and the Dispersion enforced the laws of what towns remained. Graham Moon was a son of a retired Dispersion soldier and now farmer. His father continued to hate magic, but Graham was indifferent. One day on their newly acquired land, Graham was about to find out that magic had plans for him. Cover made by @xXsweetieleXxComplete
