The Beginning
Displaced from his homeland by war, Cerik leads his family into the wastelands in an attempt to find a land of safety where they can live in peace. But the war spans the continent, as magical creatures who claim to be gods fight for dominance. None is content to rule a portion—all seek to rule everything. They gather their followers to fight, and send beasts to hunt down any who are not involved in the battles that rage across the land. Prophecies are about to be fulfilled, and the Age of magical creatures is about to end. Only the Elder of the dragons has Seen what is to come, and he has one final task to accomplish before his kind disappears from the world. He must prepare the land to receive the humans who will rule in the next Age, and set up a protector to guide them—but this task could cost him the life of his granddaughter. The dragons compete to win the title of protector while Cerik and his band fight gods and monsters to survive while they seek a safe haven.
