The 7th Element

All volumes in this series

Synopsis

In the beginning of all things, before time was counted, the Void shaped the two fundamental forces of Erion: the Light of Nazari and the Shadow of Apolion. Decreed never to coexist in a single being, these forces collapsed when envy corrupted the darkness, spawning monsters and the Seven Deadly Sins. Eras later, when the fabric of the world threatens to give way, Elrick appears: a young man forged in pain and the assassin arts who breaks the most primordial rule of the cosmos. Mastering the four natural elements and uniting Light and Shadow, he discovers that his draconic blood and his destiny are intertwined with the supreme force of Creation: the legendary Seventh Element, the Void.

A drop of blood fell into her father's grave. Angels and demons came to fetch it. On a morning of eclipse, the sun and the moon meet over Kaldvik, in the frozen north of Andronor. In the afternoon, Aldara climbs the slope to leave blue thistle on her father's grave. A thorn pierces her finger. A drop falls to the earth. Down below, in the Umbra, a demonic lord sees the glow of that blood and recognizes what the gods had deemed extinct. The eclipse made the veil between the worlds thin. The demons rise. From the Splendor the angels descend. In the midst of the fight, Roriel, commander of the phalanx, saves Aldara and closes the wound on her shoulder with a sung word. Then Árcon, god of justice and light, gives the sentence: the mortal must die. The one who descends to carry it out is Roriel, alone. Angels do not know how to disobey. Roriel finds the only way not to kill her. He tears off his own wings. Without light and without flight, in a body that now feels cold and hunger, he flees with Aldara to the Mountain of White Silence. There the two raise a house, and he learns to live as a man. But the sky has not forgotten the order, and in the Umbra the lord who saw that glow keeps waiting.
