Stoneblood Saga

Soron and Velaina left the royal life behind, with all its intrigues and dangers, for the small village of Elderwood. For 14 years, they lived a peaceful and simple life, until one day their son Nathan showed signs of possessing magical abilities, and all their plans were thrown into question. Before they could share their secret pasts with their son, a tragic series of missteps by an ambitious duke leads to tragedy. Nathan's quest finds him pitted against deadly bandits, vicious mythical creatures, and a northern king who will either kill him or call him grandson.

Nathan and Verin have just rescued Ava, her little sister Rose, Sharon. Their old village having been destroyed, Nathan and the girls decide to trust Verin and follow him to the magical kingdom of Balta. But as they arrive in their new home they are greeted by great clouds of black smoke. Balta is under attack!
