First Duty

For a ranger among the immortal Dharva, duty comes first.But for Shylilias, the woods have become both prison and refuge. Shirking her responsibilities at home to her mother regarding an impossible task, she scours the wilderness for threats to her kind, a means to avoid the turmoil raging inside of her.Until one day she stumbles upon the body of a poisoned bear, a hunting party of brutish humans, and a treasure they have stolen that could force the entire Dharvakind Kingdom into war…Now battling a powerful sorcerer and a ferocious winter, Shylilias must sneak into forbidden lands as she runs the razor's edge between duty and despair if she is to save her homeland!
