He has one rule. The world is about to break it for him.
Corwyn has spent sixteen years in the quiet village of Talmark trying to be unremarkable. A foundling raised by a sheep herder, he has exactly one best friend, no family history worth mentioning, and a strict rule he's kept his whole life: never draw attention.
That rule is getting harder to keep. Something is waking up inside him - a power that answers to no teacher, follows none of the paths the world recognizes, and flares hottest exactly when he can least afford it. First it's whispers in the village. Then it's a stranger who asks too many questions, and a fire that leaves his neighbors looking at him like he's something to fear.
When staying means putting everyone he loves in danger, Corwyn and his best friend Joren run - north, toward the one place that might have answers: the Council of Nameknowers in Kaerithal, and the truth behind an old amulet no one in Talmark has ever been able to explain.
But some roads that lead toward the truth also lead straight into the hands of people who already know it - and who have been waiting a very long time for him to arrive.
The Call of the Heir is Book One of The Chronicles of Aetheria, a fantasy saga about the legacy you never asked for, the friendship that survives finding out who you really are, and the first steps of a much longer road. Perfect for readers who love:
- Slow-burn found family and loyal, banter-filled friendships
- A hidden-heritage hero who has to earn his power, not just discover it
- Richly drawn, atmospheric landscapes and hidden ruins
- Magic systems with real rules - and real costs
Start the journey. The road north is only the beginning.
