Guardian of The Stone — Josiah Lebowitz

Kren has never left The Village of The Silex. In fact, no one has. Bound to protect the magical Verities Silex, the villagers lived quiet lives isolated from the rest of the world, until one day a mysterious attack changed everything…

Alone in a world where strange and powerful monsters roam free and evil men prey on the weak, only one thing keeps Kren clinging to life, The Silex. But then, a chance meeting sends him on an adventure he never imagined possible. Love, sadness, greed, dark secrets, and seemingly impossible quests face Kren and his new companions as they undertake a perilous journey north. No one knows what lies at the end of the paths they have chosen but, as times goes on, Kren begins to see a new reason to live and even a chance for revenge, if only he can live long enough to find them.

Seven quests… Two hearts… One evil… One adventure… One Stone…
