Splendor of Dawn
Part One of The Jewel of Life
What was once reality now fills the minds of Eklean's children as no more than fables. Despite his pointy ears, not even Devlyn believes that he is an elf; they have all passed from living memory into stories. At least, that's what he's been told his entire life, growing up as a ward of the abbey school of Cor'lera. One day, a silver-eyed woman with pointy ears tells him something very different and invites him beyond the village limits to discover the truth about his allegedly criminal family. Swept into a world of magic that includes dragons and a phoenix, Devlyn's eyes open to a world he believed was a myth when shadows of the past reveal themselves once again.
