What could be powerful enough to abduct five mages? Make that six when frost mage Maeve recovers from an explosion to find her leader snatched away by a teleportation spell. As part of the Peace Keeper order, along with Lilley, a flora fairy, she’s sworn to hunt down anyone that abuses their magical abilities. And remove the threat where necessary. Beneath the depths of the city, something dark is stirring. An ancient ritual set in motion to transform a disillusioned kidnapper into an unstoppable legendary being. One capable of seizing the kingdom that dared to suggest those without power were his equals. Can Maeve prevent his ascent to immortality? Even if she does, she’ll have to live with the cost… The World of Orthaya books are all standalone stories you can read in any order. Trial of the Red Rune is a 7,000 word short story featuring the Peace Keepers.
