The Gems of El Beginnings - Book One

Join a tale over one thousand years in the making.
It starts with the actions of one simple man, Tark the Trident, but soon grows to encompass entire countries. Whether he likes it or not, Tark is destined to become a champion of salvation and fight against his enslavers. With the aid of an unsuspecting group of allies, he stumbles from the role of fleeing slave to messenger of royalty. Twists of fate often give birth to heroes, especially the unlikely or unwilling ones.
There are legends of the Dark Lord of Drackmoore that have spread across the civilized lands of Pangias for centuries. To most, that is all that they are - legends. The few that know the true man behind the legend, know that he is much worse than tales dare to tell. Kandair is the center of growth on Pangias, the largest continent on EL, and her people are about to get a rude awakening. The time has come for legend to become reality. Will those unfortunate souls caught in the path of the Dark Lord survive? Will Tark and his friends be strong enough to oppose the mad wizard's designs for domination?
