Tales of Delphir: Dragon Dawn

“A good friend of mine told me right at the beginning of this journey that I could not win this war, that all I could do was to try and live a little while longer. She meant it to be a warning, but you know what I believe? That this is all we ever can do in this life.” When he sets out to conquer the continent Dakash Dakahr, the ruthless mercenary general of Seban, envisions the future quite clearly. He will resurrect the lost empire of Delphir and rule as High King. Yet upon his triumphant return home he finds himself betrayed by his enemies. With his king complicit in his downfall and his queen pleading with him to protect her young son, Nasgeith, Dakash barely manages to escape with the little prince. Hunted by his own soldiers he soon comes to realize that keeping the boy safe will demand more than his signature wit and resolve. He needs allies. Dakash finds them in the shape of the alluring Fahra Deswinn, a group of inexperienced yet immeasurably brave recruits, the secretive Shigan, and the vengeful clan warriors of Mandana under the leadership of Marl Wynterland and Bryon Brokenlance. While their bond grows amid a series of harrowing adventures Dakash knows it is not enough. The odds stacked against them are too high. But if he cannot escape his fate, he will have his revenge. At any cost.
