The Home Stone — Nikolai Krimp

Tells the story of Shannon Brightstar, an Elf Mage, sent on a quest to find the holy icon called the Home Stone that was stolen from its place of hiding. Leaving a false trail that leads the girl to an island in the Eastern Sea, Shannon returns empty-handed. Her search leads her from Maitland to the Snow Lands of the Snow Barbarians, who have invaded the southern land of the Halflings. Unable to defend themselves the combined armies of the elves and dwarfs drive the invaders back across the Great northern Divide and all the way to the capital city where King Ostrin, the barbarian ruler has been taken over by the spirit of an old dragon. Meanwhile, Roma, Shannon's friend has been sent on her own quest to find a young Drow Elf girl who possesses the power to rid the barbarian king of his evil intruder.
