2 total works
Driven from their home by drought and disease, Tariq and his river tribe travel to the great capital city of Ethrial. But once they arrive, Tariq realises that they are still in grave danger - and time is running out! Tariq is a seer, and he's had a troubling vision of a tidal wave that will drown the whole city. But when Tariq warns of impending disaster, he is banished from the city.
The only ones who believe Tariq are Livia, and elf inventor, and Artos, the soldier who arrests him. An ancient legend called The Saga of the Spiritstones might hold the key to preventing a disaster. Can Tariq and his new friends find a long-lost Spiritstone and use its powerful elemental magic to save Ethrial, and the people they love, from complete devastation?
Tariq and his friends Livia and Artos have set sail to New Ethrial on a quest to find the Crocodile's Tear, a Spiritstone stolen centuries ago. Deep in the forest, Tariq encounters an old enemy and makes a powerful new friend - Imex, a shapeshifting seer. Imex takes Tariq to the Temple of Beasts, where he learns how to become different animals - from a panther to an eagle. Tariq's friends are worried - could Imex be using Tariq to reunite the long-lost Spiritstones and satisfy her own thirst for power?
This richly imagined adventure blends themes of classic fantasy and world mythology with a timely message about protecting the environment.
