Scion's Journey
Finn was living a good life as a blacksmith's apprentice, training hard to earn the right to become one of the Kingsguard, the elite force of one hundred knights that serve and protect the King.
He worked hard, trained hard, and often got into trouble with his best friend, Prince Galen. The two of them had been almost inseparable since they were toddlers. For Finn, life couldn't be better. Until a force of assassins and mercenaries attacked the palace! Prince Galen and the entire royal family were murdered, along with Finn's father, the Captain of the palace guard, and his mentor, the Master Smith. One or more of the high noble families has lost patience and made their play for the throne. Finn is forced to flee the palace, ushered to a place of safety by a loyal retainer of the royal family named MacKenzie, a dwarf who has served in the palace for nearly three hundred years. Vowing to return and wreak vengeance on those responsible for the deaths of his friends and family, Finn steps through a doorway to find himself in an entirely new world. One where magic is real, monsters of myth and legend roam the forests, and an omnipresent Guardian watches over everything he does. Narrated in duet style.
