#2 – Sampson’s Legacy
The weak and weary are easily swayed by a silvery tongue. The battle for Triangle City is won. The Chain army, decimated. General Horace’s demise has left a power vacuum. Sampson De Le Court has filled that vacuum.
Returning to the turbulent place of his birth, the self-proclaimed governor’s calls for patriotism and productivity are altering the wild landscape of the Appalachians and areas north and west. Hand-picked law keepers keep the peace in each town. Resurrected industries provide townies opportunities to provide for their families at the heel of a saw, instead of the stock of a rifle. Soldiers patrol the region to protect citizens from raids and beast attacks. But Sampson’s narrative as he travels from town to town to win the hearts and minds of the citizens shrouds the disturbing truth from those tormented by a violent history and desperate for change. Sampson’s lawmen distribute addictive stimulants to increase productivity in the burgeoning industries. His soldiers patrol the area collecting taxes from those who have little, often visiting abuse upon those who don’t pay. The governor’s brutal interpretation of justice is imposed upon anyone who challenges his authority.
The citizens have traded military conscription for a monarchy.
When The Foundation’s Lexi Shaw infiltrates the area and learns about Governor Sampson’s devious plans to secure the region’s resources and the resulting power only for himself, she thinks it’s time for a new plan.
#3 – The Black Legacy
"Rest is a long, cratered road from here…"
Finally.
Plains City.
The birthplace of the mysterious militant group, The Black.
The end of the line, the closing of the Earth’s Ashes circle.
A stranger walks among the people with no memory of who he once was.
A wife he doesn’t remember is his lone connection to his past—as both a carpenter and a spy.
The abbot of the new-age monastery has plans for this amnesiac—this project who could tilt the balance of power on the tumultuous continent in his favor. But the threat he allowed to escape from the city a decade ago constantly looms in his mind…and Porter Moss is a threat he has always taken seriously.
The abbot is becoming paranoid, his behavior, erratic, his actions, more and more desperate.
A plot is afoot. He knows it. He can feel Moss nearby.
The time he has dreaded is here. But he is ready for the final conflict that will determine the fate of the city, and perhaps the entire continent.
Will it be his way, the new way? Or will it be Moss’s, the ways of old?
