Last Of The Wilds cover

The aftermath of war weighs heavily on Auraya and Leiard in Last Of The Wilds, as they confront their haunting pasts and seek redemption.

In Last Of The Wilds, the aftermath of the war between the Circlians and Pentadrians leaves both sides grappling with the heavy toll of conflict. Auraya, the architect of the White’s victory, finds herself haunted by nightmares that plunge her into a landscape of blood and guilt. The specters of the fallen rise to accuse her, a constant reminder of the lives lost under her command. As she struggles with her inner demons, the one person she trusts to help her has mysteriously disappeared, leaving her in a state of despair and isolation.

Meanwhile, Leiard, a Dreamweaver, is also facing his own battles. He is beset by powerful memories of the long-dead Mirar, which have become increasingly overwhelming. In a bid to escape the chaos of his thoughts, he retreats into the mountains with Emerahl, believed to be one of the last of the Wilds. Although Emerahl does not possess the abilities of a Dreamweaver, her unique gifts allow her to assist Leiard in deciphering the tangled memories that plague him. Their journey of discovery leads them to revelations that will irrevocably change the course of Leiard's life.

As the Pentadrians regroup and seek a new leader, it becomes evident that peace is still a distant dream. The scars of war run deep, and the path to healing is fraught with challenges. In Last Of The Wilds, the characters must navigate their personal struggles while the specter of conflict looms large over their futures.
