Broken Bonds of Trust - The Reign of Peace, #2 - E-book - ePub

The Tudorian Empire retries its efforts to take over the east and follow their Emperor's command to own all the lands from coast to coast.  Gunther, the Lord Commander of their army is forced to work with a Governor of one of the Empire's provinces; one that he cannot see eye to eye with.  As they march east, Emperor Cree also has his son, Loren go west, across the seas to meet with the Harub Kingdom.  The Crown Prince, Mutid Kerim al Aziz, of Harub, wishes to usurp the throne and has quietly reached out to Emperor Cree to join the Empire and move away from the Human Alliance. The once peaceful lands are eroding as the drums of war begin to beat in the background.  Aewyn, the High Priestess of the Elves of Aurelias, continues to try and isolate away from the bloodthirsty humans.  She has dreams of her own she wants to achieve and she no longer wishes to intervene in the useless politics of men.  Unfortunately for her, Marawen's demands hang over her head while her sister, Leila, begins to distrust her. Amidst all this, Lara, the sister of Varian, commander of the army of Frier, continues to fall under the influence of the Call of the Krakenos.  While she cannot find the trolls that had provided her pleasure before, she hopes to find other surving members of the Horde.  She puts herself in a dangerous situation as Gunther continues his march through the lands below the Kingdom of Frier. The broken bonds of trust are beginning to reveal the rotten core of everything that has sprouted after the realms of war...
