Beyond the Moon Sea

A rogue scholar defies his destiny and ventures into a forbidden, mythical land, on a perilous quest to unlock the ancient secrets of a lost empire's magic.
Known for immersing himself deeply within the cultures he studies, Kores, an infamous explorer, now finds himself outliving his welcome at his beloved school. He has become an enigma to his superiors who urge him to conform.
But a stirring within his blood fuels his desire to understand the nature of magic, a knowledge decimated when the Alcar's homeland, Saylassa, turned to ruin.
Upon his return from another failed mission, a stack of letters awaits him, most bearing the stern words of the headmaster. But amongst these, a golden sigil catches his eye, an invitation from a mysterious lord whose residence lies a week's journey away. This invitation, along with an enchanted map bearing secret writing, pulls him towards a land of dark power and mythical beings-a forbidden continent he had dreamt of since his youth.
It's a dangerous path, but one that promises answers to the mysteries he's been chasing.
Kores sets off on a perilous quest to the enigmatic continent of Vailassa, seeking an ancient Alcar portal that could unlock the secrets of a bygone era, forever altering the fabric of his world.
