A young Freylarkin begins experiencing violent premonitions, foretelling unprovoked attacks on farmsteads along the eastern edge of the vale. Helping the child to control her visions, Kirika inadvertently learns of new truths involving Darlia – her sister. Now Kirika must confront Darlia, somehow finding a way to balance the scales of justice in light of her sibling's atrocities – but can she do so without losing her sister, again?Leyla, a surviving Blade Adept, delivers word of the brutal attacks to the vale, confirming the desperate situation. Under Lothnar's command, the scout regiment is sent to quell the savage conflict. Accompanied by Rayna and Leyla, the scouts discover a malevolent evil bent on expanding its territory, laying waste to all those who might oppose it. Seeking to prevent such wanton destruction, Rayna discovers a chilling relationship between Freylar's newest enemy and her miserable past. Unlike previous encounters with her murky origins, this newest threat clouds the light bringer's judgement, finding a way to get under her skin, seeking to pull her back into the darkness. The Chronicles of Freylar started life as a single manuscript titled project 'Night-Night'; an endeavour which I commenced whilst sitting beside my son, who had great difficulty sleeping at night. My presence comforted Tristan, helping him to doze off, and whilst he slowly drifted away each night seeking fresh adventures within his dream world, I set myself the challenge of creating a world of my own.Born during the spring of 1979, I moved around a lot during my childhood and teen years, which brought me into contact with a lot of people throughout my life, all of whom have contributed to my rich life experiences; it is these experiences which have expanded my imagination, enabling me to embark on this project. The Chronicles of Freylar is a huge undertaking, one which I am fully committed to developing. I am no stranger to large scale projects; my extensive background in IT has allowed me to develop and implement a number of software and infrastructure innovations over the years. Though I enjoy my work, due to its seemingly endless fresh challenges, the IT industry is a continuously evolving beast where innovations are rapidly lost in time with the relentless advance of technology. Stories, however, are timeless. I have always wanted to create a written world of my own which I can leave behind for my son, and hopefully for others to enjoy too. Welcome to Freylar; a domain set in a fantasy realm akin to the fairy-tale worlds described to young children. However, this surreal alternate world has a darker undercurrent, and it falls to The Blades, a militant order, to defend the people from those half-seen horrors born of the shadow. The Chronicles of Freylar closely follows the native inhabitants of Freylar - the Freylarkai - and their continued struggle to survive in their beautiful, yet hostile, environment.
