CephRaeL's HaNd
Two brothers find themselves on opposite sides of a great battle, neither knowing the other is alive… A traitor works in exile while preparing for the disaster only he knows is coming… A race of beings from beyond the fringe of the universe begin uncreating the world from within… And all across the land, magic is dying.
thE DaGGeR of AdendigaetH
At long last, the reason for the blessed Adept race’s decline has been discovered: powerful beings known as Malorin’athgul are disrupting the Balance and preventing Alorin’s Adepts from awakening to their gifts. Who are they? And how can they be stopped when they wield a power meant to unwork the cosmos itself?
paths of aLir
The realm of Alorin and its magical Adept race are facing extinction. Alone in understanding the threat posed by the immortal Malorin’athgul, Alorin’s Fifth Vestal, Björn val Gelderan, has launched a desperate plan: a “great game” played upon the tapestry of mortal life. And Björn’s Players have taken the field…

The Fifth Vestal’s Players have taken the field. Now they must hold their positions against Malorin’athgul as well as their immortal allies. As Björn’s game intensifies and wars escalate, those serving the Fifth Vestal must mold themselves into more than mere Players. They must become Kingdom Blades.
THE SiXth StRand
The First Lord’s game has reached a critical apex. For the first time in millennia, the teams are
equally matched. The field itself holds a kind of equilibrium. It is the task of Björn’s Players
to unbalance the field in their own favor and restore Balance to the Realms of Light.
