The Rite of the Faithful: Wynne's final trial before rising as a Flame Mage within the Quinarium.Though she thinks herself ready, the task astonishes her. Wynne is to investigate the gruesome slaughter of livestock at a nearby village and rumors of a mana source—an impossible fountain of mana, the fuel used for magic.While the rite is unusual enough on its own, Wynne is paired with the Initiate Dara, whom she can hardly understand. For Wynne, serving the Quinarium as a Mage means rebelling against her family's wishes and turning her back on wealth and status, while in Dara's eyes, becoming a Blood Mage is the only way she sees to escape a life of poverty.The quest sends the mismatched pair on a journey across the world of Llendshold, from the Nomridian Forest, home of the Fae, to the mysterious Zanerian Archipelago, deep into the long-abandoned Dwarven city of Yuvsgrend.In seeking answers, they uncover a conspiracy that shatters all they believe in - including their loyalty to the Quinarium. But if they stand up for what is right and embrace the truth, will it mean losing all that they hoped for?Blood and Flame is Book One in The Quinate’s Faithful, a fantasy trilogy filled with magic, action-packed adventures, and a touch of slow-burn romance.
