[The Restoration Series 02] • Ossendar

The first two books of the Restoration Series combined into one volume.

The Guardians: Book One of the Restoration Series:

Flare is a young half elf who has been raised by the elves. Despite having spent his entire life with the elves, he has never really been accepted and lives the life of an outcast.

As his thirtieth birthday approaches, Flare makes a momentous decision. He decides to travel to the Southern city of Telur to join the Guardians. The Guardians are the elite part of the Telurian army, and anyone can join; even foreigners.

The elves are outraged, and Flare is forced to flee the elven forest and travel alone to the human city of Telur, where he joins the Guardians and begins his military training.

Flare is assigned to the western Fort of Mul-Dune, where he continues traveling the path of prophecy. Unknowingly, Flare has began down the path of an ancient and cryptic prophecy. A prophecy that the church of Adel will do anything to keep from being fulfilled. Anything, including murder.

Ossendar: Book Two of the Restoration Series:

Ossendar picks up right where The Guardians: Book One of the Restoration Series left off.

Flare a young half elf returns to Telur a hero and is cheered by the commoners. The nobles are a different story. Flare begins to settle into his new life as a prince of Telur and quickly discovers that life as a simple soldier wasn't so bad. Plots and schemes abound, even in the royal family.

Even though the Church of Adel is watching him closely, afraid that Flare will restore the Dragon Order, Flare continues to study magic. When the opportunity to study sorcery presents itself, Flare can't pass it up. Both magical arts are forbidden for warriors to learn and if anyone finds out, then Flare will die slowly and horribly.

With armies massing to the south and east, the king charges Flare with a secret and vital mission. He orders Flare to the catacombs under Mount Ogular to retrieve Ossendar, the sword of the last member of the Dragon Order.

Flare takes his squad of soldiers and heads south, amazed by his mission. Not only is Ossendar supposed to be a powerful weapon, but it's also one of the identifiers that the Kelcer Prophecy uses to describe the coming destroyer. Kelcer prophesied in explicit terms of the horrors that the restorer of the Dragon Order would do; one of the first signs of the destroyer is that he will wield Ossendar.
