0.5 The Forging of Dawn:
No armies march. No generals marshal their troops on some distant battlefield. Yet the people of Entarna are at war. And they are losing.
The nightwalkers have returned, creatures that roam the darkness searching for anyone foolish or unfortunate enough to find themselves without light to protect them. And the people of Entarna carry lanterns and torches, wielding them as shields against the night’s creatures.
But sooner or later all lights fade. All flames go out.
Torrik and his wife were once soldiers in the war against the Dark. But when their son Alesh was born, they left that life behind them in the hopes of keeping him safe. But Alesh is no normal child, and Torrik will be forced to learn a hard truth.
Mortals plan. Mortals hope. And the gods laugh.
Finding themselves in the center of a conspiracy threatening the entire realm, Torrik and his wife must try to become the people they once were, people they’d thought they’d left behind long ago.
For when all lights go out…darkness reigns.
3. The Warriors of the Gods:
Blades hidden in the dark lose none of their edge
Alesh and his friends have evaded the Broken and his warriors, fleeing into tunnels hidden deep in the earth. They travel to Peralest, a city where they hope to find help, to find sanctuary.
But when night falls and the shadows caper, hopes are snuffed out as easily as a candle flame. Betrayed and hunted, Alesh and his companions must learn how to use the magic the gods have blessed them with, if they’re to have any chance of survival.
But not all magic is good and not all blessings are kind. Kale Leandrian hides away in his castle chambers, disguising himself so others might not see the monster he has become. But no disguise can conceal the unnatural hunger or thirst for violence growing inside him. A hunger that won’t be stayed. A thirst that must be sated.
In Valeria, Tesharna’s soldiers comb the streets for any who might threaten her secret desires. She, too, wears a mask, one of confidence and loyalty to Amedan. But beneath that mask, darkness seethes, a darkness even she does not fully comprehend, for the greatest of disguises hide the truth even from those who wear them.
Night comes. The Darkness rises, and in its rising no mortal will be safe. In its rising even gods will die.
4. The Strength of Mortals:
The warriors of Darkness approach. The Long Night comes.
With the help of his friends, Alesh has defeated Tesharna and taken over the rule of Valeria, bringing the Light back to a city swallowed by Darkness. But some shadows linger, even in the face of the day, and some threats hide in plain sight.
Outside Valeria, the Broken gathers an army of murderers and servants of the Darkness whose only desire is death and destruction while Kale, now known as Argush, musters the nightlings and terrorizes the countryside.
Faced with squabbling nobles who care only for their own ambitions, threatened by betrayal from within, Alesh begins the impossible task of preparing the city’s defenses. But time is running out—night is coming, one that threatens to snuff out the Light once and for all.
The gods themselves cannot help. Javen, the God of Chance, lies dying, the poison of the mysterious God of Shadows coursing through his veins. Amedan is weak from Shira’s betrayal and Deitra, the Goddess of Music and Art, grieves, her song one of pain and regret.
But as dire as their situation is, Alesh and his companions will not run—not this time. For the Light does not hide, and its greatest strength lies in being seen—even if being seen makes it vulnerable to a host of shadows who seek only to extinguish it.
The shadows lengthen and the Long Night comes. If Valeria is to be saved, if Alesh and his companions are to survive the coming storm, then they will be delivered not by the blessings of gods but by the strength of mortals.
