The White Gryphon

Ten years have passed since the devastating Cataclysm shattered the world and scattered the forces of the legendary Mage Urtho. In its wake, a diverse community of humans, gryphons, and other sentient beings have forged a new, precarious haven within the gleaming White Gryphon city, carved into the face of a majestic cliff. Their hard-won peace is abruptly threatened when the mysterious Black Kings appear, their fleet dominating the harbor, asserting dominion over the land White Gryphon now occupies. Facing the imminent loss of their sanctuary, the courageous gryphon Skandranon and his trusted companion, Amberdrake, volunteer for a perilous diplomatic mission to the Black Kings' court. Their hope is to negotiate a vital alliance, but they soon find themselves embroiled in a deadly political game. The assassination of a powerful noble opposed to their cause reveals a sinister plot, powered by dark Blood Magic, threatening not just their mission but the very existence of White Gryphon.
