The Tree of Ruin Joshua Porter

Welcome to a Different Sort of Fantasy

No story begins at the beginning. The past sculpts the present with fingers too long and delicate to trace, working according to a plan beyond the knowledge of any who still draw breath. But when those ancient talons try to craft a hero's fate for young Donvin, to force him into the mold of the savior the world so desperately needs, they find that the shape of a hero and the shape of a monster are not so easily distinguished.

Enter a world on the precipice, one whose dark past is all too eager to give it a final nudge and whose people must rediscover forgotten truths before they have any hope of fighting back. Join Donvin, Elymia, and Edwin on a journey of intrigue, subterfuge, and secrecy as they struggle to buy their tired world just a little more time before the inevitable end.

Enter the shadow of the Tree of Ruin, and know that from its web of branches there can be no escape.
