Song of the First Tiding

In the time before the Great Flood, when human life was measured in centuries instead of decades, the Three Nations of Man are faced with the first great threat of world annihilation. The Fallen Star has commissioned a Betrayer to facilitate his will of destruction for all life and Light on Earth.

N'nak, the adolescent son of a provincial merchant, suddenly finds himself in the midst of an epic struggle to save Earth from the first great annihilation. Previously irresponsible, he looks within himself as well as to his most trusted friend, the dwarf Grrumpf, to find courage.

But when N'nak and his unlikely band of friends try to convince their leaders that they stand a chance against the forces of darkness in defense of the Light, they are met with skepticism. Faced with obstacles and lacking support, they must face evils they cannot imagine.

Full of multidimensional characters, rich settings, and nail-biting action, this coming-of-age epic is for anyone who loves a great story. Join N'nak as he sets aside narrow interests and starts out on a quest to save the world from destruction in Song of the First Tiding.
