This is a medieval fantasy for mature readers. It is the first volume of the trilogy, Rise of the Fallen. The Ancient Gods rose from their slumber to assist the Dark Queen in her maniacal tyranny. No longer shall her cursed descendants be forced to dwell under the earth. Together the evil powers manipulated the naive humans that had dominated the land. Treachery unfolded throughout the kingdoms as nobles and priests took bribes and turned their back on their fellow brethren. Chaos ensued. Those of power, unwilling to conform to the wicked, were sabotaged or driven into hiding. A group of unlikely diverse heroes from different corners of the world had formed to defeat Listius. They would be forced to sort out their cultural and religious differences while risking their lives as they defend all that is good and pure. Betrothed To Darkness The gray elf princess, also known as Missia, had been forced into the marriage of Demmibuss, prince of the Drow and son to Listius. This was the initial inspiration for Prince Kandrick of the gray elves, brother of Missia, to assemble a group to foil her plans.
