The first book in the Almaris Series; embark on a journey across the great central ocean and into the western continent of Almaris, a place as beautiful as it is tragic. In the wake of a brutal war that engulfed the continent years before, Guile Serdio attempts to start a new life far away from his home country of Sandora, and hopefully find what he lost somewhere along his way. However, just as nations do not soon forget the transgressions of their neighbors, so to does Guile struggle with leaving his rage and anger in the past. As our characters find their sins manifesting itself throughout their lives, they must come face to face with their own weaknesses while struggling to prepare themselves for an encroaching darkness that is of their own making. Dive into a world where beauty hides just beneath the filth, and where the thought of reconciliation is an ever-burning flame that always remains slightly out of reach.
