Cover conceptThe story
One arrival changes everything.
When Eniel arrives in an unfamiliar world, he has no past to remember and no idea why he was sent there. But his arrival is felt by every Shardling on earth.
One is sent to hunt him. Another is bound to the powers moving against him. A fisherman and soldier-in-training is drawn into their path.
None of them yet understands the war being fought through them—or what their choices will cost.

The Shardlings
Fully grown beings who carry a fragment of a Daimon at the center of their being. They inherit their creator’s Essence—but not necessarily their will.
Meet the Shardlings →Landfall
The earth gets a vote.
When a Shardling makes landfall, their shard is encased by the element beneath them. As the Daimon’s Essence passes through that element, its power emerges transformed.
