The Sword of Valor'

Leon had grown up without parents. He had seen all that he knew and loved destroyed by the wild warriors that sailed in from the North on their boats with the heads of mythical dragons on the prows. But he had a gift that even he didn't know he had. As he grew to be a young man, his life became complicated, and how he mastered his gift could save a world, or turn it to unrelenting evil and that evil would rule the world of Valor' forever.

The Tiara of Thann

Varla knew that she was unusual. She could hear animals speak, and she could speak with them, further, she had the gray eyes common only in those who wielded power or were of the ancient blood. Of her blood line she knew nothing. She was happy and enjoyed her life of solitude in the high country around the village of Koontifney. But things change, and the world of Thann was being slowly conquered by a very evil queen, and events would draw her into them against her natural instincts and desires. Thann balanced on a knife edge and unknown to her she could push it either way, into light or darkness.
