Hope and Ashes

The queen is dead, or so the rumors say. Following Collette's attack and near death, Zephraim's use of blood magic on Larent has everyone on edge. The travel party decides to bunker down in Barcomb Mill, Whyldon's old estate, for the winter. Already fraying at the edges, the group is nearly divided by the revelation of Nawalya's visions showing a possible attack on Collette. Back in Quenall, Zephraim suffers visions of the sister he killed while dealing with Riken and Rhoslyn's plans for the kingdom. He hopes sending Riken to Galel will alleviate some stress, but will it only make things worse in the long run? As news of the death of Collette spreads across the kingdom, Crem's rebellion begins dying out, but the former commander has more important things to worry about. His wife Diana remains in the castle acting as spy and confidante to their miserable king. Will Lord Barris's protection be enough to keep her safe? In the Nereid kingdom, Aphros has allowed Jayden and Ceto to travel to Coralia in search of Collette. Will they find help or even more horror and despair? Legends of Coralia: Hope and Ashes is the third novel in this epic fantasy series.
