An Enchanted Sword — Travis Bughi

Purpose.

It is the one thing Takeo has always wanted, and it is within reach. He means to piece together not only a world left fractured by Jabbar's wrath, but also a heart torn asunder by Emily's death. Under the service of a new shogun, Takeo sets out for the desert sands of Savara on a task worthy of his skill -- perhaps too worthy.

To help him on his quest, he has the benefit of something he never once had: friends. At his side stand a knight with a heart of gold, a viking with no fear, and an ogre with unbound strength. Unfortunately, it is not enough.

Takeo aims to accomplish the impossible, to achieve something many have tried, but all have failed. To succeed, Takeo must be willing to make any sacrifice, climb any mountain, and cut any deal. The kind only a jinni can make.

But at what cost?
