Shadow of the WindSlayer Book I

Between faith and power lies destruction. In a realm divided by warring faiths, young Roan aspires to become a Knight of the Modeus despite his low rank. But when the militant Archon Knight Trylian orchestrates a bold plan to overthrow the Elsarius-faithful king, Roan finds himself thrust into a position of terrible power. Phael, a gentle young Claret of the Elsarius, is torn from the Sanctuary and forced to magically bind with Roan, becoming the unwilling source of the Knight's growing powers.
