Shadows and Scales: The Tale of Falliess Gloriduum

By L. J. Thrush

Shadows and Scales: The Tale of Falliess Gloriduum is an epic fantasy adventure of courage, belonging, sacrifice, and the strength to rise when the world tells you to stay down.

She was born with white hair.

For that alone, she was hated.

In the remote dwarven town of Nolbuhr, Falliess Gloriduum has spent her life as an outcast. Mocked, beaten, and feared by those around her, she dreams of only one thing-to prove her worth by joining the King's Elite Guard.

But Falliess carries a secret older than the mountains themselves.

When an encounter in the wild awakens powers long thought lost to history, her life is thrust onto a path of danger, discovery, and destiny. Pursued by ancient enemies, caught in the schemes of kings, queens, and dark cults, and forced to confront the truth of who she is, Falliess must decide what kind of person she will become.

As shadows gather across the kingdom of Thorlundur and war threatens to consume the realm, one young dwarf may hold the key to its future.

Yet legends are not born in comfort.

They are forged in fire.
