After that event... The world was never the same again. Economies weakened, countries tried to expand and lock themselves in like dying stars; the progress we were so proud of became only a fleeting remembrance in the memory of some grandparents. Of all the nations that managed to expand and prosper, Taured was always the quintessential hermetic country. In this place, three young friends will have to make a tough decision, after reuniting with a childhood friend who they thought had died. The towering plateau and its gods of yesteryear eagerly watch the times of change.
I got the story idea with the ending. Then it started flowing backwards, unravelling the events that led up to that final moment. Although it is still in the development stage, I would like to hear your theories and any other helpful advice from the fellow writer and readers. The Book will have action, betrayal, romance, politics, and mystery.
Alexandra wakes up on the morning of her family vacation with no memory of the previous day and finds herself in the kingdom of Eldrida.
Where she will make penance for her crime and eventually become entangled in royal politics. She is in the kingdom where everything appears to be doing well, but it is actually dying from the inside.
Asher is having the time of his life as the charming and charismatic prince of Eldrida. Sooner rather than latter he will have to start taking responsibilties. As Alexandra and Asher's paths intertwine, they must navigate treacherous alliances, uncover hidden truths, and ultimately decide whether they have the power to save Eldrida from its impending downfall.
A prince finds his footing in the hierarchy, while the girl desperately searches for the way home. Their fates are connected yet separate.
