Folklore: A Saga Book One

Bol

Two villages suddenly disappear. All that remains is a vast swamp shrouded in thick mist and even thicker mystery. One village helped supply the kingdom with food, the other with limestone. The king orders the rebuilding of the villages and for work to continue. Time passes, and the tale of the missing villages becomes lore.Suddenly, children begin vanishing from their beds. Over the next one hundred years, forty-one children mysteriously vanish. Scouring through the records of the scribes and astrologers and having discovered strange ruins in the center of the swamp, Lord Darnell and his chief astrologer believe they have figured out when and how the next event is going to occur. However, they have no idea what it is they are trying to stop. Time is against them, and so is the king's edict. If their theory is correct, they stand to be heroes. If wrong, they stand to lose everything, including their lives. With his land, title, and family fortune on the line, Lord Darnell begins preparing for the unknown, praying that he is preparing for naught, yet hoping he would not prove himself to be a madman or, worse, to be hung for treason.Two worlds, once unified by a single gate, had both suffered violent and horrific events due to that union. In response, the gateway was forever shut. Through time, the inhabitants of each world now believe the Other Place is merely a myth. A dark and unforeseen breach in that gateway has suddenly rejoined them and with it the terrifying secrets of a buried past. Neither side is prepared for the shocking truth, a truth that would upend all that they have come to believe: the belief that all the scary stories they have heard and shared by the bedsides and around the fire are just folklore.2
