Firen – Hayt’s good friend and fellow engineer.
Vael – Another acquaintance of Hayt’s, he is the guard on duty when the group prepares to escape.
Daemons
Kedoria is the queen of the daemons. Her loyalties to the elves are shaken when she is captured by Animir and recruited by Amicia. She commands the daemon forces, but they are only able to live in total darkness, which severely limits her utility within the group. She has a few named minions, but they are only briefly mentioned in the events of the story.
Gnomes
Thirac is the sovereign or king of the gnomes, also called the head of the elders. He is untrustworthy and holds little concern for the Kingdom of Eriden. Their people watch events unfold and record them in their tomes, which are stored in their great libraries hidden inside of the old trees of the marsh lands.
Sevoassi is the gnome the group encounters in the northern woods. He is a trickster who helps them escape the northern pack and gives Amicia a special red orb of unknown origin or purpose.
Minor Gnome Characters:
Ziyath (grumpy) – member of the order of the ossci, the highest and most powerful of the gnomes.
Mizath (happy) – member of the order of the ossci, the highest and most powerful of the gnomes.
Yimath – member of the order of the ossci, the highest and most powerful of the gnomes.
Dragons
Ziradon is Kaliwyn’s father and rightful Supreme Dragon of Eriden. He is overthrown at the beginning of the story by Gwirwen, who imprisons him that he may suffer for the rest of his days. A powerful wielder of magic, he is seven hundred years of age. During his life, he has lost two wives and all of his sons. Princess Kaliwyn, his dragoness and heir to the throne, is all he has in the world.
Gwirwen is the current King of Eriden, but only because he was successful in taking over the throne. He is not as strong as Ziradon, and certainly not as wise. His poor choices lead to certain destruction, as the prophecy of the destroyer appears to be fulfilled by his doing.
Kaliwyn is the daughter of Ziradon and rightful heir to the throne of the Supreme Dragon of Eriden. Forced into the form of a mortal as a young dragoness, she is taken away to Nalen, where she is found and raised by human parents. She is not aware of her true self and must discover her dragon heart before it’s too late.
Lamwen is the captain of the king’s guard. He is assigned to protect the coast of the continent and leads the guard in that role. When the group makes it ashore, it is the guard’s job to eliminate them. When their attempts prove unsuccessful, he is reassigned to spy on the group, where he learns of Amicia’s identity. Becoming her friend and guardian, he is eventually welcomed by the travelers and becomes vital in their success.
Minor Dragon Characters:
Ziewen – female dragon, loyal to and eventually mated with Gwirwen.
Pardodan – loyal to Gwirwen, he longs to improve his rank in the king’s guard.
Vaudien – loyal to Gwirwen, he takes Lamwen’s place as captain of the king’s guard when he is removed.
Kilawon – Kaliwyn’s mother and Ziradon’s late mate, who was murdered by Gwirwen.
Jarrowan – Lamwen’s friend and supporter, he spends time with the group and even experiences human form for a few days.
Putwyn – a less than decisive member of Lamwen’s followers who betrays him, then wishes to rejoin them. Most noted for helping the group escape the dragons by arranging for Baeweth to help them.
Onothwyn – a lesser member of the king’s guard who helps to hunt the group.
About the Author
Anyone who knows me could tell you, I am a friendly kind of person, never met a stranger and take up conversations anywhere at any time. I work hard, and my mind never seems to shut down, as I wake up often in the middle of the night with ideas pouring out and demanding to be dealt with. Of course that means much of my books were written in the middle of the night.
I grew up and still live in the great state of Texas where everything is bigger, where we have warm weather and a central location. I love my state, my town, and my family, which includes my four sons, my significant other, and many friends as well.
I have thoroughly enjoyed writing this story and hope that you will love reading it just as much. And of course, there will be many more adventures to come.
