Rise of the Nightkings

How long can peace last once a dark god has been banished to your world?

Inyalia's always dreamed of becoming a ranger. Whether shooting apples off her sister's head, tracking any number of beasts into their lair, or exploring the forest of Trendensil, one thing's for certain. She's never lacked for finding trouble.
On her fourteenth cycle, when elves are considered adults, she sets out to achieve her dreams. But things aren't as she expected. Plagued by self-doubt and the unorthodox methods of her mentor, Inyalia must ask herself, is this really the life for her?
Before she can answer her world is torn asunder. Fire and brimstone rain from the sky. The dead crawl from their graves. And entire units of trained rangers disappear overnight. Whether she's ready or not, war is coming.
Can Inyalia overcome her fears and step into a battle never before known to her people? Or will her lack of experience lead to her downfall?

An ear-splitting pop echoed through the heavens. The sky turned dark with rolling clouds. Through them, an orange glow burned, but it was too bright to be the sun. For a brief moment, that seemed to last an eternity, the world was still. Alona's heaving movements ceased. The wind stopped. Even the upturned snow hung in the air, refusing to complete its descent. In that moment, the world was forever changed.

Inyalia froze. The terror that had been building inside her came to a boiling point. She had to run. But where could she go? Nowhere was safe. It would find her even in the darkest reaches of oblivion. She watched helpless as the burning sky broke through the clouds. It skated across the heavens, burning everything in its wake. She could feel the heat. The snow around her sizzled. And, as quickly as it appeared, it crashed somewhere far to the south.

Rise of the Nightkings is a new entry point into the Eldarlands Saga. It follows the story of Inyalia, a young elven girl who desperately wishes to become a Ranger.

When Inyalia comes of age, she'd granted her chance. But before she can fully find her place in the world, disaster strikes. Unknown to all but the seven keys, the dark god Izaryle has been banished into their world. And with it, the Rise of the Nightkings will forever change the world.
Inyalia must complete her training and find her way back home before the growing corruption can swallow everything whole. But it will be no easy task. And Inyalia may very well be her own worst enemy.
