A King's Caution (The Eternal War)

Despite numerous obstacles and impossible odds, Raimie, Kheled, and their pitiful collection of soldiers have arrived upon the shores of Auden, a land that none have laid eyes on for over a decade. Within a week, its hostile reputation makes itself known in the form of a decidedly unfriendly reception by a flood of Doldimar’s vicious Kiraak. Upon their miraculous survival, Raimie and Kheled come face to face with a very real concern: how does one overthrow an oppressive Dark Lord when he knows of one’s coming? On top of the headache caused by resistance plans, Raimie struggles with the revelation that, in his past, someone has messed with his mind. Who could have hidden Nylion away from him, and why would they have committed such a violation? The answers to these questions lie in a locked and guarded chest within his head. For the first time, Kheled has gained a true ally in his millennia long quest to break the curse Ele and Daevetch have placed upon him and Arivor. But even with this addition, his goal seems laughable, and it stretches even further out of reach when Creation once again brings unwelcome news. Eledis has spent years working with Marcuset to raise the army that Raimie has stolen heart and soul. If he ever wishes to accomplish his aspiration, he’ll need it back, but even his best friend and one-time ally stands against him. It will take all of his cunning and guile to manipulate Raimie into giving him what he requires. If Raimie and Kheled can survive long enough to take Auden from Doldimar, they can bring peace to a land long absent the concept. Even if they bring peace, however, how long will it be destined to last if the cycle persists? Without a permanent end, Erianger and Arivor will only return anew, whether that be in one hundred years or a very few.
