FLORESKAND Vol 4: PROPHESY
As
the
events
in
Madurava
unfold,
Lornwater’s
Madurava
House
undergoes
a
significant
alteration
in
the
alignment
of
its
spirit
statues,
signifying
the
prophet is coming! Though it is not clear from which direction…
If
there
is
any
truth
in
the
prophecy,
then
many
of
the
city
kingdoms
of
Floreskand will be shaken to their core.
Barely
recovered
from
his
ordeal
in
King,
Aurelan
Crossis
sets
out
on
a
journey
of
vengeance
against
Saurosen,
the
deposed
king,
which
takes
him
into
the
midst
of
pilgrims
heading
for
the
Sacred
Hills,
where
he
will
be
sorely tested.
Bindar,
a
survivor
of
the
strife
in
Wings,
now
trains
mountain
troops
in
Arion.
In
the
Vale
of
Belet
he
comes
into
contact
with
the
Haram
Sect
as
well
as a powerful fugitive from his past.
The
ordeal
for
Lorar
worsens
as
she
is
taken
by
her
tormentor
Danorr
to
Arisa…
The
emperor
of
Tarakanda
is
faced
with
heightened
political
and
religious
tensions and insoluble assassinations that threaten to destabilise the empire.
And
Lornwater
is
still
recovering
from
the
civil
strife,
where
factions
of
Remainers
continue
to
threaten
the
life
of
the
rightful
king.
Watchman
Welde
Dep
finds
his
investigations
bring
him
closer
to
Queen
Tantian,
risking
the
jealousy and enmity of the king.
The saga of Floreskand continues.

FLORESKAND Vol 3: MADURAVA
All paths seem to lead to the dunsaron.
Shortly
after
the
Lornwater
rebellion
(Floreskand
2:
King),
the
head
of
the
Madurava
House
witnesses
a
meaningful
change
in
the
alignment
of
the
sacred compass – pointing to the Sonalume Mountains, to the dunsaron.
Meanwhile,
the
Ratava
are
preparing
for
a
migration
that
will
take
them
to
the
dunsaron,
for
their
food-source
–
the
vast
numbers
of
the
schwarm
–
are
burrowing
away
from
their
usual
haunts
towards
the
land
of
their
forebears
to propagate the species.
We
meet
again
Rujon
Sos
and
K-Kwan
as
they
track
the
schwarm
and
the
various competing groups of Underpeople.
Still
recovering,
the
three
cities
of
Lornwater
need
rebuilding
and
that
requires
money.
But
the
royal
treasury
has
been
emptied
by
deposed
Saurosen.
The
trail
of
lost
riches
leads
Lord
Tanellor
to
the
dunsaron,
guided
by the daughter of Arqitor, Charja Nev.
Others
are
converging
on
the
same
area.
First-commander
Nimentan
Pellas,
loyal
to
the
deposed
king,
has
been
sent
on
a
secret
mission
with
a
large
body
of
soldiers.
Almaturge
Rait
Falo
is
headed
there
also
with
a
caravan
of
great
wealth.
Ulran
is
slowly
coming
to
terms
with
his
new
disability,
while
his
son
Ranell
is
in
pursuit
of
Epal
Danorr
who
has
been
released
by
a
general
amnesty
and
has abducted Lorar.
Watchman
Welde
Dep
is
embroiled
in
arcane
investigations
that
point
to
a
powerful
almaturge
committing
murder,
while
the
new
king
wrestles
with
the
serpentine diplomacy of the Ranmeron Empire, Tarakanda.
The
denouement
will
be
played
out
in
a
mysterious
place
where
the
land
has
never
experienced
snow
and
is
always
warm.
Soon,
it
will
be
warm
with
flowing blood…

FLORESKAND Vol 2: KING
When
Ulran
and
Cobrora
Fhord
left
Lornwater
on
their
quest
to
resolve
the
mystery
of
the
red
tellars
(Floreskand:
Wings),
the
city
was
ripe
for
rebellion
against King Saurosen, holder of the Black Sword.
In
charge
of
the
Red
Tellar
Inn,
Ulran’s
son
Ranell
is
drawn
into
a
conspiracy
with
nobles
to
support
Prince
Haltese,
the
king’s
heir,
to
overthrow
the
tyrant.
Inevitably,
as
a
mining
disaster
and
a
murder
in
a
holy
fane
stoke
the
fires of discontent, open rebellion swamps the streets.
Conflict
turns
into
civil
war,
where
the
three
cities’
streets
become
a
battleground.
Conflict
is
not
confined
to
Lornwater,
however.
There’s
fighting
below
ground
in
the
mysterious
tunnels
and
caves
of
the
Underpeople,
and
within
the
forest
that
surrounds
the
city,
and
ultimately
in
the
swamps
and
lakes of Taalland.
Subterfuge,
betrayal,
conspiracy,
intrigue,
greed,
revenge
and
a
thirst
for
power
motivate
rich
and
poor
individuals,
whether
that’s
Lord
Tanellor,
Baron
Laan,
Gildmaster
Olelsang,
Lord-General
Launette,
ex-slave-girl
Jan-re
Osa, Captain Aurelan Crossis, Sergeant Bayuan Aco or miner Rujon.
Muddying
the
fight
are
not
only
bizarre
creatures
–
the
vicious
garstigg,
the
ravenous
lugarzos
or
the
deadly
flensigg
–
but
also
the
mystics
from
the
Sardan sect, Brother Clen, Sisters Hara, Illasa and Nostor Vata.
At
stake
is
the
Black
Sword,
the
powerful
symbol
that
entitles
the
holder
to
take the throne of Lornwater.

Floreskand, where myth, mystery and magic reign.
The

above
the

of
Lornwater
darkens

of

tellars,
the
magnificent birds of the Overlord, wing their way towards Arisa.
Ulran

whether
it’s
the

Ulran
has
with
the

almost
affectionate detail. .." - British Fantasy Society review
“A
fast-paced

an

full
of

and
a

join

Their

Along
