The Lightbound Chronicles: Shadows of the Past: Book One
Five forgotten pasts. One enchanted manor. A prophecy that could change everything.
When four estranged friends follow a strange pull into an abandoned, ivy-covered manor on the outskirts of town, they expect nothing more than a reckless adventure. Instead, they uncover a place that is very much alive - and home to a fairy who has been waiting far too long for their return.
As the manor awakens, so do the truths buried deep within them all.
They are not ordinary teens - and never were. They are an Elf, a Mermaid, a Fairy, a Nymph, and a Shifter, bound by elemental magic and a destiny they can't remember. Chosen to protect the Realm of Light, their powers must be unlocked before an ancient darkness rises and a far greater war begins.
Guiding them is Sid, the manor's stone guardian - a disciplined scholar and steadfast protector whose calm presence offers both structure and safety. Though proper and reserved, he soon finds himself quietly amused by the group's chaos, becoming a steady mentor and father figure as they train, face dangerous trials, and rebuild the bonds they once let slip away. With mischievous manor Gnomes, ever-shifting secret passageways, and a mysterious cabinet that provides exactly what's needed - whether wanted or not - the manor quickly proves as unpredictable as it is enchanting.
But prophecy alone won't save them.
To claim their magic, they must confront who they are - and what they're willing to lose - before the blood moon rises.
Step out of your world and into the manor - where magic, mystery, and destiny await.
