An ancient prophecy revealed after hundreds of years Peace broken by an evil emperor's secret orders Three missing cylinder seals hold the key to survival For centuries, the webbies have farmed the land along their muddy riverbanks, the armored have practiced metallurgy within their rocky caves, and the gliders have honed their medicinal arts amid the ancient forest. The emperor has allowed these races to govern themselves with little interference. Amanki, Moshoi, and Brina, young people from vastly different regions, races, and cultures have grown up in peaceful and prosperous times under the safety of the empire. UNTIL NOW Disaster strikes along the river, betrayal upends the caves, and aggression penetrates the woods. When the human emperor, haunted by his guilt-ridden dreams, uncovers the prophecy of the three seals, it feeds his paranoia and he hatches a plot of wide destruction. Three youths are chosen to bring the fabled cylinder seals together from the corners of the empire to Tzoladia to save their races. But the emperor and his minions are searching for those same seals for a different purpose. Along their separate journeys across the empire, these youths' faith is tested as they face monstrous beasts, treacherous people, and their own deep seated fears.
