Lightbearer: The Eirene chronicles (The Peacemaker Saga)
Some stories are meant to be remembered. Others are meant to be rewritten.
Eirene has finally done what the world once believed impossible. Chaos has been awakened. The darkness has been defeated. The Lightbearer has become a legend.
But legends have a way of becoming prisons.
As Eirene and Adonir travel with a troupe that brings her story to villages across the land, she discovers something she never expected: people don't want the truth of what happened. They want a story. A hero. A victory they can sing about.
And for the first time in her life, Eirene finds herself enjoying the role.
The troupe's charismatic leader, Tharen, offers her something no prophecy ever has: the freedom to become someone other than the woman the world expects her to be. But as the performances grow, so does the distance between the legend and the truth. Old histories are rewritten. Ancient gods are given new faces. And somewhere within the troupe, someone is watching.
Then Eirene's light begins to change.
As the bond she once shared with Chaos grows quiet and the person she trusts most begins to slip away, Eirene must confront a question more dangerous than any enemy she has faced:
What if the story she wants to believe is the story that will destroy her?
The truth has been buried for centuries. The darkness is not what she thought. And the enemy may be closer than anyone realises.
Because some battles are fought against the darkness.
Others are fought against the story you tell yourself.
Lightbearer is the second book in The Eirene Chronicles - an epic fantasy series about acceptance, the stories we choose to believe, and the courage it takes to discover who we are when the world has already decided for us.
