Queen of Ash and Ruin

<p>There was once peace and prosperity in the realm of Daearen but war has torn the lands apart and scattered the people into two factions: those who willingly bend the knee to the self-appointed Queen Morrigan and those who refuse. As the life force known as awen is slowly diminishing the fight to relinquish the invading forces is growing ever more desperate. </p><p>In the city of Keinuka Barret Borrowmag-the son of a prominent general-plots against his father while the succubus Penixia is torn between her growing love for the handsome rebel and the loyalty she holds for her mistress the Queen.</p><p>Sent on a journey across the countryside by his older brother Helmer Borrowmag finds himself far from home. He is equipped with the knowledge that he has a role to play and there is only one place where he might find answers: the Colony.</p><p>In the Colony the Fae Keena is stepping into the role of warrior though she would rather become a healer. A new power has begun to manifest itself within her one that whispers words of consolation while tempting her to give into its fury. She knows she mustn't but she can feel her control slipping and is fearing where this new path might take her. </p><p>The threat of Morrigan hangs over one and all the draining awen leaving a connection to magic unstable and as times draw close for a great clash the fates of those involved will grow increasingly intertwined calling for sacrifices to be made so that balance may be restored.</p>
