Book excerpt: The Varik Noir was foretold, prophesied by all creatures within the natural realms of man. Foretold by the wizards and worshiped by the priest. But what they have foretold is not exactly what is to come. Stirring within the realms of Thia the creature comes into being, though what he sees and witnesses bring him suffering and pain. Driven by the source, the collective energy of all things in existence at the smallest point of creation, the Varik Noir sets out on a brutal quest of self-discovery and learning though soon finds him caught up in the wars of man. Can he maintain the purity in which the prophecy’s demand of him or shall he fall to much sinister forces at work.
