AN EPIC FANTASY OF A DAMSEL IN DISTRESS, ANCIENT GODS, AND MAGICAL CREATURESWHEN his father mysteriously disappears without a trace Chazz is forced to take the crown and lead the kingdom of Balkanos against their old enemy, the Ocreeans. When he makes a promise to his kingdom to attain peace with them the people turn on him.

One of their allies has made peace with the Ocreeans, so Chazz knows it can be done, but can he convince his people it's for the good of their kingdom too? He has one chance to convince them, or it may not be just the Ocreeans he has to worry about. WHILE Chazz has been away, his brother Brutus has been secretly courting Chazz's betrothed, Lady Velvet, but little do they know an old magic has begun to unravel in a distant mountain that will change everything.

When Brutus receives word that Velvet has been stolen away he will stop at nothing to rescue her, even subjecting himself to traveling with an ominous stranger who seems to know Velvet, maybe even more than Brutus, which both infuriates and worries him. .
