Before the story. Before the bond. Long before the eclipse.
Lorien Blackbourne at nine, at nineteen — the shadows, the moments that made him, and the cat.
A free prequel, delivered in instalments.
No sales. Just the story that started everything.
The Veiled Realms has corners the books don't reach. Scenes that didn't make the cut. Characters with secrets they didn't share on the page. Maps of places you haven't visited yet. This is where that goes. Parts of the world worth keeping.
