The Kingdom of Aelethia has been quiet for five hundred years, but
the Dark One is rising from out of the depths. All of Aelethia will
perish unless the Chosen One comes forward to save them.
Unfortunately, the Chosen One doesn't know her destiny in the
world; she only knows she is odd and confused about where her
destiny lies. She wants to find love, but the men in her life that
actually love her, she cannot have, and the only one that wants her
is as evil as they come. The elves know of her destiny and must
tell her and train her in time in order to fulfill the prophesy
that has been laid out before her. Can she become the person they
have waited for? Can she, in time, destroy the evil that is
threatening to overtake her kingdom? With friends to guide her and
a man to whom she truly loves beside her, she may be able to save
Aelethia from doom.
Heroes prevail... usually. You sit close to a campfire, depending
on its faint, flickering light to ward off the darkness. Yet the
fire cannot hold back dark memories, thoughts of your fallen
kingdom, of monsters across the land, of magic gone awry. Around
fires like yours are seated other travelers, refugees from
catastrophes none dare mention. Kings and queens huddle shoulder to
shoulder with peasants, wizards share scraps with slaves, and each
wishes only to be saved. Some will be lucky, for heroes yet remain
in their lands. For others, hope was not among the provisions
stuffed into a pack when fleeing home. Eventually the silence of
the night grows too heavy, and someone speaks. They tell a tale of
loss, of foolish pride and tragic mistake. With bravery stoked by
company, others speak up, each sharing their own sorrows. Before
long, there are enough tales to fill a volume. The conversations
continue through the night, and by the time dawn has filtered
through the gnarled tree limbs, journeys must continue, and one by
one, the strangers trudge away. Their worlds may have ended, but
they have survived another night. They will continue on, seeking to
rebuild upon the ruins of great dreams. Their stories linger upon
the air, drifting into time like the smoke from their extinguished
fires, fed only by faint embers. This book contains eleven stories
set in worlds where an apocalypse has already come, but the
characters you'll read about aren't quite ready for the end.
