The Amaranthine Heart
(2012)(The first book in the Tera Short Story series)
A Novella by Bridget McKenna
A Journey into Memory
Madoc is a decorated federation hero who's drinking himself to death in the fleshpots of Castanica. His biggest creditor - castanic crime lord Praedo - offers him a job that will wipe out his debt: sober up and escort a caravan to Val Aureum, where a shadowy priest claims to have the secret that will grant Praedo eternal life.
Val Aureum is the one place Madoc swore never to return to - the home of the battle that changed his life forever. When the federation mustered him out, he ran from everything he knew - alone, ashamed, courting the oblivion he almost found.
Now he's going back, along with three of Praedo's henchmen and a mysterious cargo. There'll be a rendezvous with death, with destiny, and with the unwelcome past when the party keeps its appointment with Ealhain, a blood magician, at the Dark Cathedral.
Set in the world of the first true action MMORPG, TERA , "The Amaranthine Heart" travels the paths that lead to the heart of heroism.
This adventure novelette by Bridget McKenna is a great way for readers to experience world of TERA.
Genre: Fantasy
