THE FLAMES IN THE SHADOW
“In an era when great darkness and corruption reign, an immortal sorcerer is desperate for unprecedented imperial power over an island whose salvation must depend on the affections between an unsung prince and a blameworthy sorceress. Zeranah is not just a powerful sorceress but also a celibate clairvoyant and valorous warrior who can wield weapons of war, and whose beauty easily catches the eye. Detran is a beautiful young man who, devoid of ambition, roams round the mountains with his supernaturally swift legs. Zeranah becomes blameworthy after she reveals to Lord Golrus, an immortal sorcerer and major nobleman of the province of Zedzka, his future conquest over the kingdom of Agron. Detran learns of his princely status and the death of his true parents. Zeranah and Detran realize that they are divinely destined to be lovers who cannot succeed without each other, to share common obstacles and rule Agron together as the rightful king and queen. Thus, the impossibility of the refusal and denial of a love affair between them. The salvation assessment: In the face of the loss of their beloved ones, the increasing dangers and the onset of a civil war that stands inevitable, can Detran and Zeranah defeat the immortal sorcerer and his mighty acolytes who stand as a common threat to their love affair? Can they save Agron from the powerful jaws of eternal darkness?”
