The Xavier Mosaic: Portrait of Asyrias
Synopsis:
Silas has no memories of his childhood. It's a mystery why his canines come to points, his blue eyes turned violet, his pale skin darkened golden brown, or why his rage can summon fire from his flesh. What he does know, however, is that these traits once drew admiration from others in the village, admiration that turned to fear and scorn--even hatred. He must flee, choosing to live as a beast in the forest, if he is to avoid being hanged. But now, three years later, he is wanted for the hangman's noose again, and even the forest is no longer safe. He will have to leave--forever--to survive. This time, however, Silas is determined to find the truth at all costs. |
