Shattered Light: The Rise of the King

By: Ortiz, Dustin

A broken sword.
A rising god.
A kingdom on the edge of ruin.

Amos has spent his life running from the shadow of his father-once a revered king, now a rising god of darkness whose power grows with every passing day. When the divine gems that once fueled the legendary sword of light shatter, the last hope of the realms collapses with them. Only one path remains: restore the weapon...or watch the world fall.

With his closest companions-Nessra, a scholar whose knowledge may be the key to salvation, and Tim, a warrior torn apart by betrayal-Amos journeys into the treacherous depths of Molgrund Deep, home of the ancient dwarven craftsmen. But even the mountain demands a price. To reforge the sword, they must recover the lost Aegishield, now held within the illusion-wrapped South Kingdom, where political secrets cut as sharply as blades.

Old loyalties crumble. New truths surface. And as alliances tighten and enemies stir, Amos must confront not only the darkness rising across the realms...
but the darkness within his own bloodline.

In a world where hope flickers as faintly as shattered crystal, can one broken heir rise to become the light the realms desperately need?

Shattered Light: The Rise of the King is a sweeping fantasy of betrayal, resilience, and the thin line between legacy and destiny.
