Full Summary :


How far would you go for love? How about revenge ?
Would you destroy your soul for either of them?
Two brothers find themselves trapped in the middle of an ancient war between Aerials(angels) and Xantians(demons).
One is a prophesized, powerful aerial that could restore light to all things …
The other – something else entirely, a hybrid between the two races. Hunted by both parts for different reasons – one seeks to destroy him while the other wants to use him.
Will they be able to save each other, or will they fall victim to their own natures and the intrigues that surround them?
Will their love for each other eventually save their souls, or doom them forever?







Prologue :

All things come to an end …

We are no more than characters in a story, fragile and ephemeral, our lives easily extinguished by an arrow or a stone, our futures changed with the flap of a wing or the fall of a leaf… we are a world of leafs hanging by the branches of a tree, swaying from side to side at the mercy of the elements, changing color as we grow older, as it grows colder …

Turn a page from the book and let your gaze fall upon our existence : we are born, we are young and happy, innocent and at peace …

Flip another page and we are in love, we feel like we can do anything, nothing is beyond our reach, we are on top of the world and surely even the gods must be jealous on our happiness for nothing can be more beautiful or more perfect than this… this moment… we are blooming with pride and with love, we are glorious and beautiful…

Turn the page yet again and we grieve our loss, we are in pain and it’s like the whole universe is against us, we feel cold and abandoned, lost and alone, we are frightened and we do not understand, for nothing seems to make sense anymore, not in our eyes. We curse the gods and renounce our beliefs, we wage war against others and we wage war against ourselves.

Look closely and with heed, watch us change our color: emerald, gold, ruby and ash … See us wither and dye …. Watch life begin anew and the cycle starting over, again and again and again, ‘till the end of all things….

Is this the end of our tale ? … a countless row of ‘being born’ and ‘dying’ starting with the beginning of time and ending when there is no more to tell ….
No! it is not… for sometimes unexpected things happen, events that perhaps not even Fate itself took into consideration, impossible things, and sometimes nature doesn’t follow it’s natural course and the cycle is broken …

When life is not enough and death is to little, when the balance is so utterly shaken that it can never be restored, when the cycle is destroyed in such a way that it can never be made whole again the foundations of all the worlds will tremble … and in the presence of such power forbidden pages will be turned and all the laws will be rewritten, …

And to all things comes a beginning…

Next time :


Our story beings in one of the most unlikely places : on the north shore of the White Lake, in a small village containing just 257 souls, near the city of Lior, in the kingdom of Aesilium …

( just to make things interesting and keep you curious )
