Synopsis

Quest Objective: Reach the Abyss, find the rogue mages, and end the war.

Tempest doesn't belong on the battlefield. As the general's daughter, she should be perched safely in the Bastion, watching the world at war. But the monsters flowing from the Abyss already destroyed her family, and she refuses to lose anyone else. Her strange magic promises an end to the conflict, if she can just reach the bottom of the Abyss and set her power free.

Seiche knows nothing but the mines and the war they fuel. As a digger, his only concern should be locating ley lines to sustain the Bastion's magic-powered weapons. But he's a soldier, too, and when Tempest's unexpected presence on the battlefield sends things sideways, he's bound by duty and honor to protect her—and when they're cut off from the rest of the army, her mission may get them both killed.

Their one chance at survival is the only thing that will end the war: to reach the bottom before the next full moon, when the next wave of monsters spawns. Yet as they venture into the Abyss and battle their growing attraction, they uncover one truth about the rogue mages and the mana-beasts they command...
Everyone is lying, and one wrong move might end them all.

A Fable of Guardians and Glory, inspired by the fairy tale Cinderella, is a closed-door standalone romantasy set within the Dungeons and Legends series. Perfect for readers who love the wonder of fairy tales blended with the adventure of classic RPGs, this story features forced proximity, military conspiracy, slow burn romance, warring mage factions, and high action. Your adventure starts here—press start to play.
