Ember in Time

Shiny ember rocks are fuel for time; the dull rocks are a fool's dime. An old nursery rhyme, or so they think. Itra and Danae stumble across an ancient secret kept hidden behind a reflection in time near their Albanian home. A faded memory and cryptic messages have propelled them to risk an encounter with foes from Greek mythology, altering their perception of Albanian folklore and reality. Itra and Danae grapple with events set in motion centuries ago and must choose to protect and serve or risk having the secret exposed. Will love, loyalty, and lineage be enough to hold them together, or will they lose their way in a universe they are only beginning to understand?

Danae and her brother Leon, descendants of Zeus, are thrust into a world they barely understand. A new responsibility to protect and serve the goddess Ember and the Castle of Teskom after Danae's husband, Itra, a descendant of Mui, family failed to protect the castle from an attack lead by Poseidon and Medusa. Their first assignment, finding and retrieving a stolen artifact to restore the barrier that hides the castle from each dimension. An adventure that leads them deep underground and high above the mountains alongside a few familiar and new faces. The clock is ticking. Will they restore order or create more chaos?

Six months after Itra and Danae were ejected from the Castle of Teskom, an alarming phone call sends them back and not by choice. They're not alone aided by the support of the new alliance of descendants from the bloodlines of Zeus and Mui and the Protectors of Time. They arrive just-in-time to defend the castle from Ember's scorned ex-lover Chronos. But the list of opponents evolve as they uncover an ancient prophecy of a new beginning of time between the four dimensions. To begin again or tip the end. They must decide.

A day will come when this world is one. A divine bride will lead the guide inside to begin again. He must tip the end. Four worlds will bend and fold to derive a world untold. Elis learns the dreams he's been sketching for months are visions of a near future. He's confronted with his greatest challenge since losing his mother, Iana. His task is simple, retrieve the urtar stone. His obstacles, monumental. The list of adversaries standing in his way begins with Perseus and his wife Andromeda and the god of time himself, Chronos. All while keeping three seven-year-olds with curious minds out of harm's way. His burden lightened with the support of the Protectors of Time, the descendants of Zeus and Mui but still a task he has to complete. Before the day is one, Ember's compass will guide time inside to dial the light and retrieve the stone before night.
