Treachery of Ravens
Second Edition
(September 2, 2024)
Love is a gift.
It's also treacherous.
With echoes of forgotten magic stirring beneath the surface, the realm of Osmaria faces new challenges.
Elspeth Cadwgan, once dutiful and obedient, finds herself suffocated by familial expectations. Yearning for a purpose beyond societal confines, she embarks on a quest of self-discovery, challenging her beliefs and reshaping her perspective of the world around her.
A disowned son of a duke, Cyrus Arbritrem harbors only two goals: Uncover his lover’s murderer and shield others from the darkness that stalks him. Escorting a naïve runaway through the wilderness is the last thing he wants. But as the woman, with her mysterious connection to beasts, starts leaving her mark on him, he faces a new dilemma. Wrestling with his fear of vulnerability, he discovers himself locked in a battle against emotions he thought dormant.
Together, they navigate a world on the cusp of transformation, where secrets and newfound powers collide. As they brave personal demons, discover their true selves, and unearth a dangerous conspiracy threatening their country, they must confront the risk of trusting each other amidst their internal battles.
Their journey is not one of legendary feats, but rather of redemption, introspection, and the transformative power of love, woven into the fabric of a shifting world where magic reignites and everyday heroes emerge.
