The dragon screamed in pain as one of Stepha's arrows lunged deep in his throat. Jermys was on the canok in moments. In one move, he recovered his axe and placed it to the creature's throat as well. The dragon moved quickly and was within one talon swing of killing the dwarf when Schram swung his talon equally fast across its throat, severing his head from his body."Stop," shouted Schram toward the other dragon. "This is your chance to end the killing."The canok did not move as Jermys was still on top of him. The canok's eyes were cold and lost and were locked on that of the large female dragon before Schram. "Do it, my queen. Kill the dwarf, and together we will kill Schram."There was a pause, and all seemed to get deathly quiet. Then, the dragon moved. "No!" Scram hollered as he saw her intent.She lifted her talon up to strike the dwarf a deadly blow. Schram did the same.After 220 years, they thought it was over. They thought they had beaten their enemy and ended the Dragon Opression. They had lost friends and family, but they had saved their world. Now, new friends have emerged, and some from the past have returned. A new prophecy was issued, defining the end of life as they know it.Thirty days-thirty days!-to either turn Schram over to the true power on Troyf or die. The one question: Are the four weapons and staff enough to prevent the death of the dragon?The Death of the Dragon is the continuation of Kenneth Kappelmann's award-winning Hidden Magic series featuring The Return of the Dragons and The Dragon Unknown.

The Council is dead. The Courts have fallen. But the fight is far from over. With the keys to the realm around their necks, Nicole and Raiden hardly have the chance to breathe before the role of Kings sweeps them into the heart of Veil. Raiden just wants to keep Nicole safe, and the fated Palace of the Keys seems the only place in either realm where Venarius can't touch them. Nicole knows she can't hide from Venarius forever; but she can't shake the horrors of the Courts, or the deepening fear that the people she loves will be endangered because of her choices.To lure out their enemy, Nicole and Raiden travel across Veil under the pretense of their kingship. As the realm teeters on the brink of instability, Nicole and Raiden hope to find allies in the leaders of Veil's old kingdoms, but members of Dawn are everywhere. While Venarius observes Nicole and tests the protections around her-Nicole must find a way to live her life despite being on the royal stage on which she'd rather not be standing.
