The Living Keystone

Immobile as a petrified carcass of human flesh, our hero waits as the army of felines march closer. The ground rumbles, causing him to tremble in fear. Warm air escapes her nostrils as she faces him, nose to nose, and he sweats. "Who are you? And where did all these animals come from?" he asks, her fur scratching his forehead. Then his skin prickles and he learns she is the Lion Queen, and those animals are her loyal subjects.

"Blayz Attenbery," she says, her voice roaring between his ears, "I commission you Retriever of the Sacred Keystones of Wamara. The task will be difficult, with many lives at stake."

Her words vibrate the truth. And he knows Wamara, his country and beloved home, depends on him to retrieve the keystones to ensure their safety against the encroaching darkness that threatens their destruction.

Will Blayz succeed and save the Kingdom of Wamara, or will he die trying? Enter Blayz's world to find out.
