Beneath a Younger Moon

An ancient curse. A broken brotherhood. A generational saga told in epic verse.

In the beginning, humans and elves walked as brothers, sharing equally in the gifts of Light: life that seemed immortal and the secrets of Magic. But mankind's hunger for the power of Creation fractured the world forever. Through a cataclysmic war of Light and shadow, an ancient wizard's curse twisted humans into the dreaded Dreki, a human forced to wear a dragon skin. Because of the blight of Darkness growing in humankind, the Light took away their gift of Magic, but not all of them forgot.

One Noble House of Man remained faithful to the Light. Ever on guard against the rise of Darkness, the rumors creeping in from the farthest realms of the Fair Enchanted Land are cause for alarm, but the wicked blight is closer than they know. In a cruel twist of fate, a lone princess is called to be the bearer of the primordial Stone of Light and wield the Sword of Flame to make the ultimate sacrifice and scour evil from the land.

But the raw fury unleashed during the battle awakens Chaos itself. In a violent, cosmic upheaval, the enchanted world is split in twain. The newly born realm is cast adrift. Man is cutoff from Magic forever and living a mortal life, leaving humanity to forget its true history and relegate all things magical to mere fairy tales.

Generations pass and the ripples of that ancient cataclysm still break across the Fair Enchanted Land. A devoted hearth gnome, whose heart is broken when his last remaining human charge has crossed the ocean in search of a new life, awakens an ancient tree who opens a secret portal into the mortal realm to help him find her. Decades later, the gnome and his companions journey back to the Magic realm and find themselves called to rescue the abducted elf king, only to discover an even deeper mystery.

A young adventurer, annoyingly guarded by three of her twelve brothers, unearths a cognizant, magical book in an abandoned dwarf forge. The living text reveals the ultimate mystery: the lost queen and twin princes of the last Noble House of Man lie in an enchanted sleep within a hidden dragon sanctuary. As they team up with the new bearer of the Sword of Flame and his gnome companions to rescue the royal family, an astonishing fact is revealed: She and her brothers are the grandchildren of the Winter King, and only he can break the Dreki curse forever. But, as one adventure ends, another begins. The young mage must face a shattering destiny: she must journey to the frost giant realm of Jotunheim to find her grandfather and tell him of his daughter's sacrifice, but while she is there, her Jotun blood begins to rise. Either she will control it or it will control her.The ultimate balance of the world hangs on her choice.

This breathtaking mythic saga blends the lyrical beauty of classic folklore with the high stakes grandeur of a timeless fantasy adventure!
