The Esoteric Design: Civilization Lost

By A. R. Redington
The Esoteric Design: Civilization Lost by A. R. Redington digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

After the Second Fall, the Sorcēarians brought hope and peace to the people of Earth. Though initially welcomed with open arms, the angelic race eventually received nothing but scorn as humanity was jealous of their perfect civilization. Intense warfare consumed the lands, and as hostilities worsened, the Gaius lineage awaited the arrival of the Arbitrator—the one prophesied to bring final judgment upon Earth.

 

As the centuries passed with no sign of the Arbitrator, the Gaius family fears for the future of humankind. Dovian, though born small and weak, has grown into a mighty warrior and is teamed alongside his equally skilled friends to mediate in human wars. However, as darkness plagues the later generations of the Sorcēarians, Dovian finds that the worst enemies aren't met on the battlefield but are those closest to him. As corruption spreads through Ives, threatening war on their doorstep, he also discovers that the most brutal battles are sometimes within oneself.

 

Follow the critical moments of Dovian's life leading to the destruction of his civilization in this prequel to the Esoteric Design series.
