The ritual, protected fiercely in the vaults of Iriandur, said to be hidden in a tomb of the Old. The curse, in the form of warped demons, took its first victims in the name of the elf kingdom of Felistras, its Queen left crownless and homeless. Now, the queen of a lost kingdom hides herself from the beings that still hunt her. Her pride is lost and so is her will to live. Yet, one day, hope returns to the lands, and she is needed. Can she find it in herself to fight for the future she thought gone forever, or will she drown in the dreams of guilt and horror that has haunted her ever since she fled her burning city? *** Cover is thanks to the amazing DaryndaJ.

Stealing? Plotting? Fighting? Fairly normal for Key. Questing with princes, fighting eternal evil, and stirring an ancient magic that could destroy the world? Not so much...

This is a story about a truck-hating girl who stalls in the middle of an intersection, and the soccer playing boy who tries to save her. "He started the car again, and got it to unstall. “So where are we headed Ms. Harmon, I’m at your command.” I looked out the window, and saw the headlights of a car heading our way. We were in the middle of a four way stop, so I looked at Sebastian to tell him we needed to head out. I was about to tell him the directions to Lana’s house, when the giant ass truck that was approaching the stop sign didn't stop. I could only see a glimpse of a face: purposeful eyes, a determined set in the shoulders, a plain white man’s face in a blue baseball cap, and a angry red scar traversing the length of his cheek. The glimpse was enough to know that what was about to happen wouldn’t be avoided. “Sebastian!” I scream. He whips his head to the window, and steps on the gas, but not soon enough. Sebastian seems to know that the car is going to hit us, and he throws his arm out in front of me, trying to shield me as best he can, and then the truck hits…. I seriously have a problem with truck drivers."
