Siddry is barely twelve years old when he blossoms into a Paragon and is discovered by Asendal, a ranging Paragon, searching for others of his kind. Along with Simose, Asendal's fiery companion, and other blossoming children, they must journey through a world that is bent on their extermination.
Having been hunted to near extinction by their human brothers, Plight of the Paragon follows the remarkable journey of a small group of Paragon stuck on a hostile continent. Although strangers to one another, they are bound by what they are and must learn to depend on each other to survive.
Yet trust does not come easily to Siddry. Having been abandoned since the age of six, he has lived a pitiful life on the streets of Embluff. His survival attributed simply to the fact that he never takes risks and only looks out for himself.
Now, plunged into a world filled with magic and peril, will Siddry be able to resist his ingrained survival instincts? Or will his inability, and unwillingness, to control his sporadic outbursts of power lead to the doom of his newfound kin?

The Blade and The Bird
She'd spent many years playing in this forest as a child. While Selene had enjoyed her novels in the warmth of the house, a blanket wrapped around her narrow shoulders, Sidra always came home covered in mud and scrapes from hours out in the wilderness. She'd take an axe out into the forest and pretend to fight off monsters, the terrifying Mystics that her grandmother had told her stories about. She'd pretend to fight Lycans, knocking out their massive teeth one by one. She'd stand atop rocks and throw her axe at the trees, pretending they were wood nymphs come to steal her away. She'd always return home and tell Selene about the monsters she'd fought that day, spinning together a story of courage and bravery for her little sister. She felt that pain in her heart again as she thought of those times. Through the years, she'd stop going into the woods to play, and she'd instead find stories for Selene. Books of all sizes and shapes, no matter the content, because it made her feel close to her sister just as she had before her parents died. She thought of her family now, how she was all alone. Her parents had been gone for years, her grandmother, and now even Selene was missing somewhere. She needed to find her sister, she couldn't lose the last bit of her family. **Complete

Paragon - Book I
*COMPLETE* There are whispers across the kingdoms that the Paragon, that strangely gifted person who can wield all four Skills, has been found. They're wrong, of course. No one has caught the Paragon. Allayria should know: she's it. But Allayria doesn't want to be the Paragon, and in her pursuit of freedom she finds herself enmeshed in a web of lies, caught in a group who might be even more dangerous than she could have imagined. Still, she's not the only one who has problems: bigger tides of change and danger are shifting across the world she has been assigned to protect. The Jarles, a kingdom in the east, has begun moving across its borders, and there are strange murmurings about what they have done, and where all the children they abducted have gone. Faced with responsibilities she never wanted, and a life she thought she could never have, Allayria must decide how she will help--and if she will be the Paragon at all. _____________________ WIP Cover art and written work by Azi.
