The Heir's Betrayal

"Magic isn't evil. In its truest form, it's power. That's what my father doesn't understand. Magic can be used for good." _____ Diomedes, the rebellious crown prince of Phildeterre, can feel desperation rising with each day that passes. All his efforts to end the war on magic have failed. Since his exile from the castle and his father's and royal council's betrayal, Diomedes has been seeking the object that could do the impossible; empower him with magic. When an unexpected ally sends him and his companions in a promising direction, Diomedes must decide if he's willing to risk not only his life, but the lives of his loved ones in order to gain magic and end the war. Facing frozen wastelands and poisonous desert creatures, the disgraced prince ventures farther into Phildeterre than ever before, following the call of something greater than he or his companions can understand. Each step brings Diomedes closer to a decision. A decision that once made, can never be changed. But the choice is heavy and the cost is high. *If you enjoy villain origin stories, negative character arcs, or witty elves by the name of Armannii Ovair, then pick up this story today.
