Description:

DEMONBANE begins with an odd seer proclaiming that an outcast maiden named Elandriel will save the land from the iron fist of the Demon Master who has placed the kingdom under a dreadful curse. As Elandriel’s mystic gifts unfold, she undertakes her quest, joined by a motley band of companions. Her mystic gifts continue to burgeon with each battle fought until she is consecrated in her calling by the blessings of Queen Ethyriel in the legendary land of Idannu. Elandriel, like all of us in our more commonplace lives, must bear the harsh realities of existence. Ultimately, Elandriel comes to realize the source of suffering is the evil of this world and what her own destiny is to be: The higher the calling, the greater the sacrifice; the greater the sacrifice, the more severe the suffering; the more severe the suffering, the more glorious the destiny. Elandriel is, as are all history’s exceptional luminaries, a beacon to light the shadowed paths we tread.
