Available as E-book and Paper back in the Amazon store. Check it out below.

The Sundering of the Two Moons.

Name: Thera
Age: N/A
Species: God
First Appearance: The History of Ilmgral: Book One. The Sundering of the Two Moons		Power: Thera has the power to control all the waters of the universe. From the smallest raindrop, the largest ocean. All sea creatures answer to him and he is the most besotted with Besan Gretan.

Appearance: Thera appears human like apart from that his skin glimmers like fish scales. His hair is the colour of seaweed and his eyes are crystal blue.
Backstory: Thera was born from the tear of Livella and the power Orna gave to Ilmgral. He helped provide the base for life to begin. He rarely ever leaves Besan Gretan for either of the other two realms, unless called at great need. Story Excerpt:

It glowed for a second and then the rivers of molten rock were calmed and from fissures great oceans formed. Clouds lifted above the world and the first raindrops fell in gentle tears onto the mountains. Water flowed into great bowls of the earth that overflowed and ran in many streams and rivers back to the sea.
The amazement of Livella and Orna was great, but Livella moved, and her radiance was veiled so that the oceans froze, the rivers became glaciers and the voices of Agraldin lamented. At their call, a fist hammered under the frozen ocean.
Livella moved quickly and she pulled towards her a star and Orna placed Ilmgral in orbit around it and set it to turn so that equally the heat of her star could fall upon it. The oceans thawed and rivers flowed again.
From the great sea a figure rose in splendour. He was tall and nimble, with a skin partly like scales of fish that mirror him. His eyes were blue with hints of green and he regarded his parents with love, “You have given life to me from your sacrifice’s and from me the beginnings of life shall come. They will need guiding by starlight and moonlight.”  Thera, they named him, and he parted the sea at his feet and revealed a mountain like a red sunset and another of silver. These Orna took and he shaped them and placed them as moons over the planet like silent guardians to move the tides and aid with the nurturing of life.

Knowledge Lost

Fire balled in his hand, and he flung it at the beast. It turned, bright red eyes looking into his before the pair charged at eachother. Earth rose and Tom leapt over the dragon as it charged, landing behind it. He moved, trying to get between the beast and his friends but fire shot from its mouth, and he was forced to deflect it towards the heavens. Then its arms struck. He rolled away, bringing up earth to meet it and fire turned another strike. Fire leapt from its mouth again and Tom used the pull of the metal barrier to escape just in time. The earth launched him away from another strike and he landed with a curse as his ankle went over. The beast charged at him, and the earth pushed him again but not before a spiked tail sent him hurtling in the other direction. He landed beside a tree and slowly the earth lifted him to his feet, and he felt again that same rush of power from Sophie. He was now where he wanted to be, between the beast and his friends. His ankle was in agony, his body exhausted but he would not let it attack his friends. He called upon the wind. A power he rarely used but one that came very naturally to him. A great seaward wind rolled through the trees and swirled around him, like his own personal tornado. He concentrated the wind so there was a hurricane between his fingers and then he loosed it. His friends were blown backwards, only then seeing the danger they were in, and the beast howled as a million sparks flew into the trees behind. Tom finally turned, ignoring the pain in his ankle as the beast charged for him. He jumped onto the road, the beast getting closer and closer.

Character Profile – Orna

Available as E-book or paperback below.

The Sundering of the Two Moons

Name: Orna
Age: N/A
Species: God
First Appearance: The History of Ilmgral: Book One. The Sundering of the Two Moons		Power: Orna is God of the earth. Being born from a dieing star, means he can control the elements created during the cosmic explosions. Orna assembled the dusts of the universe after Livella’ sacrifice into the first planets.

Appearance: When Orna appears to Mortal, he appears as a giant of a man, with bushy brown hair and a huge beard. He is often dressed for toil. His face resembles that of the Murka’s, who he first thought into the tapestry woven in Agraldin
Backstory: Orna was born from the greatest star Livella ever formed. When she thrust her hand into the star, giving a sacrifice, Orna was born from the power of Livinden and her sacrifice. He helped form the first planets and fashioned Ilmgral as a present for Livella. Story Excerpt:

He was grey of skin, with coarse hair covering him but his hands were stone and veins of ore glittered across his body in the light of the stars that remained. Livella came to the child and words of the mortals named him Orna and she nurtured him. Quickly he grew and the elements of the destroyed stars became his plaything and together Livella and Orna began to re-order the universe. From her lost stars, she fashioned new ones. These were smaller and less majestic, for her sacrificed stopped her from pulling anymore light from Livinden. Around these lesser stars, Orna formed planets. Worlds of swirling rock he formed, or giants of gas that nurtured great storms. Again, the voices of Agraldin sang in a majestic tone for the glory of the Gods and their creations but still no life came.
Soon Livella became weary of the realm that is as she felt no love now that her stars had been destroyed and she returned to Livinden, but Orna could not linger long in that realm of light. He was born in Besan Gretan, and he was bound to it. Orna now loved Livella, and he wished to ease her hurt and so coming to the area of his birth, he collected the remnants of the star that birthed him and formed a new world. All his power he poured into Ilmgral, and he fashioned continents for the coming of life and dreamt of great oceans where life would start but this thing he could not create. In the attempt, he formed rivers of molten rock and the world became a mass of flames and poisonous fumes that spread to many of his creations, and he roared in his anger.

Character profile – Livella Remain

The Sundering of the Two Moons Available Now.

Name: Livella Remain
Age: N/A
Species: God
First Appearance: The History of Ilmgral: Book One. The Sundering of the Two Moons		Power: Livella Remain is the god of light and the stars. She comes from the realm of Livinden and she uses the power of Livinden to keep the realm that is, Besan Gretan, moving. Since she was wounded she can no longer use her power to create stars but ever she guides the galaxies to keep the universe in balance.

Appearance: When Livella descends to come among the living she appears like on of the Ilma though her skin carries hints of yellow. She has blonde hair and often dresses in green silks. Her right arm is missing just below the shoulder and this keeps shrouded.
Backstory: Livella Remain was born from the creation of the three plains of existence. She was born in Livinden, the realm of light, and light is her power. Soon she wandered into Besan Gretan, the world that is, and took physical form. In this empty space she created the stars and set the seeds for life. Story Excerpt:

Travelling back to Ilmgral, as was her want, Livella beheld a planet grown green and the oceans brought forth rain that sustained things that now grew upon the soil. Slowly she descended and she came to a point where two rivers met and beheld a forest around her, and that forest glowed with her presence. At her feet flowers of red and blue bloomed, basking in the light of her sun. She stayed there, and watched, as the sun of her making became colder and the leaves turned to silver grey and fell to litter the floor, while the flowers withered and died at her feet. Livella despaired, feeling that these things had died in just a second of her mind, whereas the things of her creation lasted years beyond counting and in Livinden, nothing perished.
Her despair was ill-founded, for in the next second the trees began to bud, and flowers grew anew from the canopy of fallen leaves and the sun came again to full strength. So beautiful was the decay and re-birth that filled Besan Gretan, that Livella’s heart was moved even greater by the voices of Agraldin. Voices of those who wished to touch the realm that is for whatever short time was allotted to them and her immortality became a frightening thing, “They wish for the gift of mortality now.” Livella said to a budding red flower, “But soon they will wish for more time and that I cannot give them.”

The Sundering of the Two Moons- An Expansion

OUT NOW AS KINDLE E-BOOK OR PAPERBACK THROUGH THE AMAZON STORE.


The Ilma are mentioned in Knowledge Lost but who are they? An Alien race, some good, some evil? Immortals who have great knowledge of the universe? What is their curse and why do they consider themselves the chosen people of the Universe? Who are the Graul? The servant race, now some of the most powerful beings in Besan Gretan?  Briefly is the history and beliefs of the Ilma hinted at in the Knights of Earth saga, yet it is a rich history, full of tragedy, deceit, and the corruption of power. A story of the long defeat. How those chosen to be the wardens of the Gods, become vengeful Gods in their own right.

The Sundering of the Two moons is the first part of the History of Ilmgral. In this book series I will bring you the long tapestry that saw the Ilma rise to absolute power and be cursed by it. This history is told in short stories of various styles, giving an in-depth outlook into the history of Ilmgral, like the Silmarillion never could for Middle earth.

The Sundering of the Two moons, focuses on the earliest years of Ilmgral and consists of four stories:

The Beginnings of the Universe are told in the book: The Holy Quadrant. Here the three plains of existence are explained, along with the coming of the Vassals and the immense powers given to the Ilma, with their place as custodians explained.

Notes as both squire and Lord- Follows Bruska Crud, one of the Ilma as he navigates becoming a squire to one of the greatest warriors of the time, Selosa Aquitex. He witnessed some of the key events of the middle years of the Age of Vassals, including the battle of the crossroads and the burning of Fasurasuta.

The War of the Dividing Mountains- Newly come into his Lordship, Suda Drage, relation of the Vassal Drage Livella, must defend his home from the Kingdom of Scaraden. This story, though thousands of years before the events of the Knights of Earth Saga, ties in the most of all these tales, for it is the Pledge of Suda Drage that lingered as a dark shadow over the Ilma in all their many wars and would eventually bring war to Earth, until one from the Dragor would realm would do war upon Scaraden again.

The Sundering of the Two moons- This tells the story of Morelin, a high lord of the Ilma and Lucarnia, daughter of the wood king, an evergreen of the Krun-ilma, as their love and betrayal of their duties, eventually tears the celestial bodies of Ilmgral apart.

Knights of Earth Saga

This universe is just one in a long line of failed universes. In those before, beings beyond our comprehension played with the fabric of reality and manipulated the lives of those they created. Learning from their creations love, jealousy and eventually a hate that sparked wars between them until they ripped the universe apart and the cycle started again.

In Besan Gretan, the realm that is, Gadrika, God of life, hearing the echoes of those before him, decided to give select mortals the powers to level the playing field so that this universe could reach its chosen path.
The Ilma, so majestic in form and spirit, were chosen custodians of the universe but greed comes often to those already with power. Dark events drove them from their righteous path and the Graul, the servant race, were gifted powers so that the Ilma did not become tyrants in their toppling of the Gods.
Empires were split at this decision and the Ilma, now spread far across the stars, battled for dominion over the universe. Peace came at a heavy price and in that ruin, the Ilma sort for a chance to turn themselves back to a proper path. They sort for a new power, one not foretold by the Gods and in their search, they found Humanity. A love for mankind came swiftly to the Ilma, who saw in humanity the true custodians of the universe. Through experiments they tried to merge their DNA with ours, to give the powers bestowed upon them to the people of Earth. Then they departed, to allow Humanity to thrive and waited for any sign of their success…

Walking as a child they found him
The secret knight of earth
Though the humans he called kin
Their skin they hid his birth
but he was of a greater kind
A power he had within
That only tragedy could find
in the mountains heart therein

And like a god he rose among the rest
and found the wicked heart
And they battled through a deadly test
that tore the stars apart.
A god fell from the sky
with the devil in his head
And the knight of earth saw him lie
with those of the Islands dead
