Illiom, Daughter of Prophecy (2nd Ed)

Behind every fear lies a hidden power, just waiting to be claimed.The lands of Theregon have been at peace for nearly a thousand years; a prodigious milestone for a land that has experienced its fair share of turbulence. But as the end of the millennium draws near, a series of unsavoury events threaten to unravel the illusion of stability that the rulers of the land would prefer to maintain.Living alone in the Sevrock Mountains, Illiom could not be further away from the darkconspiracies plaguing the realm. Oblivious to outside happenings, she is bracing herself to face another winter alone. It was fear that led her to seek out this solitary existence; it is fear that keeps her here still.But now someone is coming for her. Someone who intends to draw her away and deliver her, willing or not, into the mayhem of the Kingdom’s political hub: the Royal city of Kuon, where dire events are unfolding in the deepest shadows, events that are somehow connected to her. Yet what link can possibly exist between Illiom and the darkness that is stalking the very heart of the kingdom?Illiom is being asked to step up and to meet with a destiny that seems bent upon colliding with her. Maybe braving another winter in the mountains is not such a bad idea..
