Legacy of Sunset: A Dragon Delves Novel
About this ebook
A call is answered not by a fellowship of heroes, but by a collection of solitary souls. There is Yarg, a dwarf warrior haunted by a lifetime of war, who came seeking peace only to find another battlefield. There is Liandra, a human cleric whose unwavering faith is shaken by an evil that poisons the very soul of the world. There is Ren’ir, a solemn elven ranger whose ancestral duty compels him to defend his home from a threat he thought was only a legend. And there is Kieran, a halfling rogue whose charming smile hides a purely professional interest in the rumored dragon’s hoard.
Bound by a village’s plea and the promise of reward, they venture into the blighted grove. They expect to find bandits or beasts, but the truth is far more insidious. The sickness is not an echo of the past, but a living, breathing horror: the dragon’s child, a wyrmling named Sunset-Is-Nigh, has hatched in its mother’s tomb. It is a creature of inherited malice, cunning beyond its years, and it has already begun to gather servants to its cause, breaking the minds of its captives and turning them into guardians of its lair.
To save Redwood Watch, this unlikely group must descend into the darkness of the dragon’s den. They must navigate a gauntlet of corrupted monsters, face a fanatical serpent-priestess, and confront a beast that wields fear as its sharpest weapon. Within the boneyard of a long-dead monster, they will find their courage tested and their alliance forged in fire and venom. They must become the heroes the village needs, or they will be nothing more than the first victims of a new and terrible draconic age.
About the author
For Kimbertos Skotti, every fantasy story is a modern myth in the making. Drawing inspiration from a deep well of world history, ancient folklore, and the archetypal hero’s journey, he crafts tales that feel both timeless and thrillingly new. He is fascinated by the "what ifs" of history and the echoes of legend that ripple through our collective consciousness. His work seeks to explore the enduring themes of courage, sacrifice, and the eternal struggle between corruption and hope, all while delivering the heart-pounding action and adventure that make the genre great.
Legacy of Sunset, the first entry in his Dragon Delves series, is a classic sword-and-sorcery adventure built upon a foundation of carefully constructed lore and a deep respect for the creatures of myth.
Kimbertos holds a degree in ancient history, a field he cheerfully abandoned when he realized that inventing histories was far more exciting than merely studying them. He is an avid player of tabletop roleplaying games, believing them to be the most compelling collaborative storytelling medium ever created. He currently resides in a quiet corner of the Pacific Northwest, where the ancient trees and ever-present rain provide the perfect backdrop for weaving tales of shadow and light. You can often find him plotting his next novel in a cozy pub, with a pint of dark ale and a notebook full of indecipherable scribbles.
