BellOfSilence
** Behind the Sea of Mists of Avalon, more than just one destiny changes in a single night... **
Once, Uther and Igraine Pendragon ruled over Albion-a realm united by love, magic, and the ancient faith. But in a single night of blood and betrayal, the Golden Age falls. Only two children are said to have escaped the bloody assassination:
Arthur and Arianna Pendragon. But their trail was lost in the mists of Avalon-and with it, the legacy of the dragon.
The dragon is dead.
Long live the king.
Years later, Albion is a land of shadows. The Crusades have left behind blood and famine; magic is forbidden, and the old religion is persecuted with fire and sword.
***
After Robin has exposed her in the most shameful way, Marian seeks a new path outside the walls of Huntingdon and far from Robin of Locksley: under the name Ahren, as a squire in the service of the legendary Silver Knight, Sir Lancelot, she hopes to finally find the long-awaited freedom in Bamburgh.
Simon, another squire, soon suspects, however, that there is more to the clumsy newcomer than meets the eye. When Ahren is finally abducted to Avalon under cover of night, the first events begin to unfold that will ultimately change not only the fate of Simon and Ahren, but also that of all of Albion forever.
For the land needs more than heroes: it needs hope. And sometimes, hope begins with a whisper...
