Shadows of a Forgotten World
In a world where magic is feared and controlled, young Davian faces a death sentence. He bears the Mark of the Gifted but cannot access his powers-a fatal flaw with the Trials just weeks away. Those who fail are transformed into Shadows, their memories erased and black veins etched across their faces, condemned to live as outcasts. When Davian witnesses his classmate Leehim undergo this transformation, the horror becomes visceral. The boy who was once his friend is given a few coins and sent away, no longer considered fully human. But Davian harbors a dangerous secret-he can detect lies, an ability resembling those of the forbidden Augurs, powerful beings hunted to extinction after a devastating war twenty years ago. In this kingdom of Andarra, power is strictly controlled: normal humans rule, the Gifted live under harsh restrictions enforced by metal Shackles, and Shadows exist on society's margins. Beyond the northern Boundary lies an ancient evil, defeated thousands of years ago in the Eternity War. When Elder Ilseth warns Davian to flee immediately, his life transforms overnight. With his friend Wirr, he embarks on a desperate journey north, carrying a mysterious bronze vessel. Meanwhile, Davian's friend Asha wakes to find their entire school massacred-and she alone survives, only to be transformed into a Shadow against her will. The pieces of a prophecy are falling into place, and forgotten powers are stirring once more.
