The Ilxder Trilogy

Ilxder I - Tempest Dawn

The Legend Begins...

Centuries ago, during one of the darkest times in Steorth's history in the Second Age, a Scholar received a vision from Tylbur. Tylbur commanded this Scholar to record what He was showing. The vision was of the future of Steorth: when times grew worse, a powerful warrior would arise to cast Tai'kalu to the depths until the end. In the 68th year of the Fourth Age, an infant was born to a Halmunan noblewoman and her adventurous husband. Sixteen years later, and this infant grew up to be a brilliant student and walked closely with Tylbur, learning the rare practice of Elementalism, a practice only utilized by Steorth's most influential legends. After a series of trials, the Order of Scholars -- meant to confirm the Ilxder upon reaching adulthood -- could not agree whether or not this boy was indeed the Ilxder of prophecy. At age 19, now a junior councilman on the Halmunan government, the boy departs from his paradisal home to set out on his own path. This is the story of your life...
