‍Nine Lands Saga Book 2
Elfsong

Revered among the High Elven of Sorrelcrest, Nilinriall’s mastery of elfsong is unrivalled. His path is set: first to ascend to the Songspiren, and then the realm of gods.

Unlike his kin, however, Nilinriall harbours a deep curiosity for the material realms. When he’s irresistibly drawn to a mortal woman whose singing can make warriors weep and flames dance, he vows to sever his ties to the material world—for attachment is not the elven way.

But it’s too late. Rejected by the Songspiren, Nilinriall is cast down to the mortal realm, where every attachment frays his elven spirit, and the shame of his exile torments him. Yet, he can’t escape the allure of the singing woman.

What begins as a noble quest quickly turns perilous. Terrethedron is dark and treacherous. With his companions Gwynnestri and Dillinir, posing as singers from the ice lands, they face sharded wraiths in the forest of Darpirith, the cruelty of the Three Cities, and the greed of the Nine Lands.

Hope faltering and the harsh trials pressing down on him, Nilinriall is increasingly seduced by mortal temptations—lust, luxury, and the numbing allure of intoxication—especially as his fame grows, and he becomes the most celebrated singer in the world.

Each step in this dark realm weighs heavier upon his soul, and with every breath, Nilinriall finds it harder to remember who he once was—or why he ever left the light of the aether.

With his spirit weakening, he fears he may never be worthy of Sorrelcrest’s light again.

Just when he believes he's found his destiny, everything is torn apart once more.
