Born into a world of magic and auras, yet exiled at an infant age, William Carter sets off after a normal life into the powerful world of Euphellia. Awakening a power through a sense of justice for the downtrodden, Will must fight the oppressors of the world he had once called home and return it to peace. Dark shadows and powerful opponents await him on his journey as he struggles to understand his hidden potential, to become the Wandering King.

The Crimson Prince: Awakening

"We should probably get to the stables." Maya wiped the tears from her eyes. "The sooner we get there, the sooner we can get home." She beamed with excitement when thinking of their new home in Ember. 


"Then we can come back here for my father's feast, then depart for New York." Will said with a smile, then put his arm around Maya as they walked a path around the castle to the stables. 


The path was lined with trees on either side. Most of them seemed to have grown over hundreds of years, while some may have been planted less than thirty years. "I remember my father telling me when these trees were planted." Maya said with a half smile. "He said for every king that is born, a new set of trees are planted." She walked over to one of the younger trees. As Will got closer, he noticed scorch marks at the base of the tree. His heart sank as he noticed it was writing.
