Description

Nearly a century of peace proves to be just the calm before the storm when a mysterious army descends from the North, systematically crushing all opposition in a show of unprecedented strength.  Even the noble elves are no match for the enemy’s dark power.  Sinister conspiracies lurk in the shadows, and fear spreads over the land…

It has been ten years since the elven child Ledrelyen escaped into the forest.  Orphaned heir to a decimated kingdom, the princess has fashioned herself into a living weapon for one purpose, fighting back…but the tapestry is larger than she thinks.  There are others battling the Shadow, others from different peoples and different histories, but all with a common enemy.  As the enigmatic Chronical foretells, the fledgling alliance they begin to forge stems not only from necessity but the whispers of prophecy…of five young heroes with magical abilities…and of an answer to why Ledrelyen dreams of dragons.

Newfound strengths bring hope, but the Shadow is great with the cunning and arrogance to dare challenge even prophecy.  What can five children hope to do against a foe powerful enough to tear down the walls of castles with the force of his will?

So begins The Birth of Terralax, a reluctant alliance between five young survivors who must overcome old hatreds and band together for the sake of all the realm.  It is a tale of dragons and wizards, friends and traitors, legends, prophecy…heroes and hope.
