Part 1 – A Gathering of Dragons
Carison has gathered his army. The Bastion Guardsmen march with him, and Deacon Winters, Janetha Sapphire, Wilson, and even the young Galune.

All of them together, and Raven with them. She has returned to him a changed woman. Her magics are lost, carved out of her by a terrifying experience of her own making.

As far as she knows, the last of her magics were used up in her escape back to Carison. But then how is Carison’s arm healing?

The small force marches south, and Carison worries it will be too little, too late. Especially when a scout comes racing back with news of the unthinkable.

The attack has already begun. And as town’s burn and people die, Carison desperately searches for a way to get in front of the gathering dragons and stop them.

By any means necessary.

Part 2 – Discoveries
Raven has learned she still has her magics.

Her love for Carison has returned that power to her in a new way.

Just in time for her to transport Carison and Deacon and Janetha into the middle of a group of dragons about to destroy the town of Doricinth.

Now, they face Bluescales, and Redscales, and other dragons as well. And worse, a single Blackscale, bigger and more dangerous than all the other dragons put together.

Death is in the air.

If they survive, there is a secret waiting for them to find. One that might tilt the balance of the coming war.

If Lemore and his Diamondscale don’t lay waste to everything around them first.

Part 3 – The Power of Need
Blood that won’t burn.

Carison has stumbled on a unique advantage for him and his friends.

The time has nearly come for the final battle.

If they cannot stop the dragons from leaving the Vale soon, then there will be no way to keep Lemore’s evil from sweeping across the Realm.

They have won a minor skirmish with a small horde of dragons. But they have become separated from the Guardsmen. They need to rejoin their forces to face Lemore.

Raven volunteers to go back for the Guardsmen, using her magics to transport herself across the spaces between.

She arrives back with them to find the Guardsmen under attack by Yis agents.

She discovers her abilities have been multiplied, both to kill, and to heal.

When Raven tries to move the Guardsmen back to Carison and the others, she makes a deadly error that lands them in the Vale of Stone. Surrounded by dragons.

With no way out.

Part 1 – Fire
After a disastrous attempt to slay a particularly dangerous Dragon plaguing the Valley of Shade, Carison Destine awakes to find his left arm has been torn off, eaten by the Dragon that still terrorizes the country.

He must overcome his fears if he is to ever recover. With the help of his truest friend in the world, a novice sorceress, he sets out to confront the Dragon again, against all odds, against all advice, and with little hope of ever returning.

The Dragon presents more of a danger than he realizes. He might not survive. But he’ll die trying.

Part 2 – Heart
Paladin Carison Destine is in the small Three Kingdoms town of Vedoran to deal with a dragon problem. A Digger, a dragon who attacks its prey from underground, has decided the townsfolk here are its prey.

The woman he loves, Raven, is with him. Before they can take on the dragon, Carison is approached by the Chamberlain Randithew Moorlock, with an offer of employment.

He wants Carison to help take back the throne of the infamous Butcher Lemore. Carison has no problem saying no. Until the Chamberlain ups the stakes and kidnaps his beloved…

Part 3 – Soul
Carison Destine, Paladin of the Realm, is being forced to murder the Governor of the former Fourth Kingdom. His cooperation is being forced by evil men holding the woman he loves captive. Raven is a powerful sorceress.

But as Carison points out, anyone can die if they let their guard down. He knows what he must do. He can’t hesitate. Hesitating could get Raven killed.

Sneaking into the Governor’s Palace was easy. But will killing a man in cold blood be that easy? To save the woman he loves, it just might be.

Part 1 – Choices
Raven will have her revenge on Lemore, if it burns her to ash.

She waits in the Dragon’s Teeth, watching the Vale of Stone below, waiting for the ally she knows will come. A Greenscale dragon, intelligent enough to know what evil Lemore will spread on the dragons if he is allowed to become King.
Her ally does not want to be enslaved.

A bargain is struck.

Choices.

On their way to Bastion, Carison and his companions are followed. They have to make Bastion as soon as possible, and obtain the help they so desperately need before the next crescent moon.

But, the person following them needs to be dealt with.

Choices.

Raven listens to Fel, her constant dragon companion, tell her that she should return to Carison, that her choices are killing her slowly. He worries for her, and encourages her to regain her sanity before it is too late.

Choices.

In the days leading up to the climactic battle between humans and dragons, good and evil, choices are all they have.

And no one can foresee what’s coming next.

Part 2 – All Hope
In the harsh mercies of Ka’luna’sen, Raven knows fear and pain.

She is near death, with no way to access her considerable powers.

Fel is fading from her. She sees no way out. She only knows she must survive, if only to see the Butcher Lemore dead.

Carison and his companions have reached Bastion. For all the good it has done them.

Governor Theron refuses to go against the orders of the Three Kingdoms. He will not give the Bastion Guardsmen to Carison for the coming battle.

And there is less than five days left before the crescent moon and the celestial alignment that will afford them their one and only chance to kill the Diamondscale.

Miracles, and last chances, and hope lost. This has been the way of things for Paladin Carison Destine.

With new allies and new friends, will nothing change?

Part 3 – Returning
Raven has used the last of her magics to find safety in the only place she knows.

She has transported herself to the arms of Carison Destine, Paladin of the Realm, and the man she loves.

After being ravaged by a Greenscale dragon, she doesn’t know if she’s ready to take Carison’s physical love.

In his arms she finds the comfort she needs. This is love. This is strength. This is what they both need time to give each other.

Only, the world is about to be at war.

There is no time.

There is only danger.

Danger and dragons.

Part 1 – The Rescue
Raven and the Guardsmen are trapped in the Vale of Stone, surrounded by dragons, with no way out.

Raven can barely keep them safe even with her abilities.

She can’t gather them all together and escape without losing most of them in the process.

She needs help.

Carison, Janetha, and Deacon are stuck in Doricinth with no way to get to Raven in time.

Their plan to attack the dragons at the Vale as an organized group has fallen apart. Their idea to use the fireproof Blackscale blood to give them an edge is useless now.

Or is it?

Is there a way to get to Raven after all? Is there a chance?

Whatever the outcome, Lemore has plans of his own. The amulet glows blue.

And with a touch of his hand to the Diamondscale E’vira’tor, everything will change.

Part 2 – Armed and Bloody
Raven and what’s left of the Guardsmen have been saved from the Vale of Stone.

Now they are regrouping in Doricinth with Carison, Janetha, and Deacon.

Their plans are made. It’s time to put them into play.

But you know what they say. Man plans for his next move while the Provider changes the rules of the game.

None of them make it to the Vale of Stone. The fight they were going to look for is coming to them.

Lemore has used ancient magic to swap bodies with the Diamondscale. He leads the dragons now.

It is time for him to reclaim his Kingdom and conquer the realm. The dragons will follow him anywhere, so long as they think he is their Gi’tro’ro.

Lemore is more than willing to play that part so long as it gets him what he wants. But it may be more than playacting. When he suddenly can understand dragon speak, he knows he has gained more than just an invincible body.

Carison and Raven are doing all they can to stop the threat Lemore has brought to the Realm. They know it may not be enough.

What they don’t know, is that not everyone will make it through this fight alive.

Part 3 – Ending
In the remains of the town of Doricinth, Carison and Raven watch as Deacon Winters carries Janetha’s lifeless body.

Too many friends have been lost already. Now, another is gone.

The dragons that Lemore had gathered for his army are either scattered or dead. They will not follow the Diamondscale any longer.

Something is different about him, something wrong. He looks like their Gi’tro’ro, but he is another kind of animal altogether.

He is the Butcher, Lemore.

As Lemore tries to regain his throne through ancient magic and by force, Carison, Raven, and Deacon fight to stop him on the eve of the crescent moon.

Everything hinges on this moment.

The fate of the Realm is in their hands, as are their own.

Each of them knows they may have to die to stop Lemore.

And one of them just might.

Part 1 – Traitors or Friends
On their way to stop Butcher Lemore from hatching an evil dragon type thought long extinct, Paladin Carison Destine and Captain of the Bastion Guardsmen Orson were set upon by a murderous pack of Bluescales.

Carison’s love, Raven, is lost to them a blaze of her own power. She lives, but she has become a force that even she cannot control.

Now, with their new ally Janetha Sapphire, a Dragonslayer and also an old friend of Carison’s, they are trying to find and reach Lemore before he visits devastation upon the Realm like has never been seen before.

And hopefully, at the same time, they will be able to save Raven from herself.

But Carison has reason to believe not all of his friends are what they seem. Or who they say.

Part 2 – Betrayal
Carison Destine is facing the most dangerous task of his dragonslayer career.

He and his companions Janetha Sapphire and Captain Orson are planning to attack the Butcher Lemore in his stronghold of dragons. They’ll need all the help they can get.

Especially now that Raven, sorceress and Carison’s lover, has empowered herself with dark power. She may have gone beyond his ability to save her. She may be a greater danger than either Lemore or the dragons.

And Carison may be her only hope.

Janetha recruits two more dragonslayers to help them. One an old friend, one that Carison has never met. And in the mix of all of these friends and comrades stands a traitor. Someone Carison will never see coming.

Until it’s too late.

Part 3 – The Hatching
Paladin Carison Destine has found himself taken prisoner at the hands of people he called friends.

Everyone he has ever cared about is either lost to him, or turned traitor.

He finds himself tied down in the stronghold of Butcher Lemore, surrounded by dragons of every sort and description. And in the center of them all lays Y’sil’ki, the Redscale female playing hatch mother to the coveted Diamondscale egg that will make Lemore ruler of all dragon kind.

Lemore promises to make Carison the Diamondscale’s first meal. So as one-time friends and allies look on, Lemore prepares to receive the newborn Diamondscale as its master.

But treachery cuts both ways.

Part 1 – Apocalypse Stirring
After losing the Diamondscale to Butcher Lemore, Paladin Carison Destine and Janetha Sapphire seek aid from the Three Kingdoms.

A war is coming.

If Lemore isn’t stopped first, dragons by the dozens, by the hundreds, will swoop down upon the Realm, killing everything in their path.

But no help is coming. Carison and Janetha are on their own.

They seek out the aid of inventors in the coastal city of Rareborn. Anything they can use to level the field is an advantage that Carison wants to get his hand on.

Only, someone is following them. And the agents of Lemore are everywhere.

Part 2 – The Diamondscale’s Story
King Lemore sits on his throne, ruling over the dragons. His intentions to use them as a force against the Three Kingdoms, to take back his throne by force, has been thwarted at every turn by Paladin Carison Destine and the sorceress, Raven.

Lemore wants them dead. Needs them dead, if his plans are to ever fall into place.

The Diamondscale dragon, Lemore’s loyal servant and key to the loyalty of the dragons, is being sent to lure Raven out, and kill her.

Raven has faced any number of dragons before, and killed them all with extreme prejudice. She seeks Lemore’s life. But she’ll have to go through the Diamondscale first.

And the Diamondscale dragon has scores of his own to settle.

Part 3 – The Beginning of the end
War approaches the realm.

Racing to Bastion to raise an army to stand against the dragons Butcher Lemore now commands, Carison and his companions become sidetracked in a town called Timberfall.

A meeting is about to take place there. A meeting of the Yis.

Janetha Sapphire crafts a plan to sneak into the meeting to learn what the Yis are planning. Janetha and Carison and Deacon Winters are agreed, it can’t be anything good.

Turns out, they’re right.

Meanwhile, Lemore crafts his plans to take over the old Fourth Kingdom, and from there the entire Realm. His allies have their own plans, ones that stand in Lemore’s way. He may rule the dragons. But he’s finding out that rule isn’t absolute.

Which is something he will not tolerate.

The Realm will be his.

All will bow their knees and heads to him, King Lemore.

Or they will all burn to ash.

dilemmas
Before the series began, and before Paladin Carison Destine is known as the best of any of the Paladins of the Realm. And before the tale of his fighting an entire dragon horde and the Butcher Lemore is legendary. His place in the histories of the Realm, along with his companions, is assured.

But how did his story begin?

This tale is part of the answer to that question. We go back now to a time when Carison Destine was just a dragonslayer for hire, gaining his own reputation by his own two hands, along with his constant companion and lover.

Janetha Sapphire.

In a backwater town in the Third Kingdom, Carison meets the man who was Paladin before him, Marsden Ullahu. He quickly learns that not all heroes live up to their name. Marsden hires Carison and Janetha to help him on one simple task. Find a dragon, kill the dragon. Simple.

Only, this is no ordinary dragon. This is supposedly one of the extinct Whitescales. Nasty, territorial dragons who breathe acid. Janetha knows the money is good for such a simple job but that’s what bothers Carison.

What isn’t Marsden telling them?
