WELCOME TO THE ANTORIC UNIVERSE
A New Epic High Fantasy Adventure Series
It is year 323 Selerian Era. The Antorian-spanning Perillean Empire has colonized Yonland, reducing the Yoneians to mere slaves. The era of the Grand Kings is but a fading memory of generations past. People remember the two Grand Kings - and the Prophecy of Anthorm about the Third King and the New Antorian Order.
When the era of the second Grand King ended with the Fall of Harachim, the Temple Ark was left missing. There was said to be only one survivor, Arkhaniel, known as the Arkman. After a failed Ark Crusade, he went into hiding, hoping for better times and keeping the ultimate inheritance of the Yoneians.
Times only got worse. Eventually, the Heirs of the Arkman decided to take matters into their own hands, and traveled across Yonland to Harachim Valley in search of the Ark, following the knowledge passed down in their family.
But little did they knew a Perillean knight-detective, Prince Chasoir, had long been investigating the Anthormic legend, and had picked up a lead on the trio heading south. Guards witnessed strange events in a river village, and the meusar spies set out on their trail. The Heirs' worst fears were about to be realized, and with no other choice, they had to leave behind what they were carrying before getting caught.
One day, a Silvonian boy, Sagiron, was hunting along the Silvon stream when he stumbled upon a strange scroll. Little did he know what he was holding in his hands, for it appeared to be nothing more than trash. When its true nature was revealed, he soon realized he had the power to change everything for good - or lead to ultimate doom if the Perilleans were to know.
But rumors about the Silvonian spread - and the knight detective became aware of them, returning to Silvon at once. In no time, Sagiron was in deep trouble, and everything boiled down to his Journal containing the Secret. It seemed inevitable it would have to be destroyed, for it was too much for him to handle.
Or should it be saved?
The events of the first instalment will determine the course of Antoric history. If the enemy discovers the Secret, the draconic Perillean Empire was only a prelude to what is to come, and destroying the Secret would be the safest option. There is also the third option - to use it for the greater good. But was it worth the risk? Once the Journal was opened to the wrong person, it might never be closed again.
