Produktbeschreibung

A rogue scholar defies his destiny and ventures into a forbidden, mythical land, on a perilous quest to unlock the ancient secrets of a lost empire's magic.

Known for immersing himself deeply within the cultures he studies, Kores, an infamous explorer, now finds himself outliving his welcome at his beloved school. He has become an enigma to his superiors who urge him to conform and retire to a comfortable life, marrying into nobility. But a stirring within his blood-an agelessness he attributes to a connection with the lost Alcar Empire-fuels his desire to understand the nature of magic, a knowledge decimated when the Alcar's homeland, Saylassa, turned to ruin.

This relentless yearning drives him to a daring act during a tribal ritual. He drinks from a blood-filled cauldron mixed with the sacred dust of Saylassa, openly defying the tenets of his school. This choice sets him on a course he can't reverse and pushes him further from the future his superiors planned for him.

Upon his return, a stack of letters awaits him, most bearing the stern words of the headmaster. But amongst these, a golden sigil catches his eye, an invitation from a mysterious lord whose residence lies a week's journey away. This invitation, along with an enchanted map bearing secret writing, pulls him towards a land of dark power and mythical beings-a forbidden continent he had dreamt of since his youth. It's a dangerous path, but one that promises answers to the mysteries he's been chasing.

Choosing a road less traveled, the scholar sets off on a perilous quest to the enigmatic continent of Vailassa, seeking an ancient Alcar portal that could unlock the secrets of a bygone era, forever altering the fabric of their world.

The Practice of Power books can be read as standalones but also as a series of interwoven stories.
