Arcane Tides: A Journey Within

Not all battles end with the swing of a sword. Eldrin Seastorm has spent most of his life in service—sword in hand, magic at his side, doing what needed to be done. But now, the battles are over, and the silence left behind is far louder than the clash of steel ever was. Haunted by loss, plagued by anxiety, and unable to conjure magic for reasons he can't explain, Eldrin returns to adventuring once more—not to fight, but to heal. Within the echoing halls of the Arcane University and the steady warmth of his family, he turns his focus toward the path of the Archmage. Not for titles or renown, but to anchor himself in the discipline of study, to lose himself in the craft until the noise within quiets. In the pursuit of mastery, he hopes to find something rarer still—peace. But the path to that rank demands more than study. A dangerous quest looms—one that will force Eldrin back into the world he’s been trying to leave behind. And as magic continues to evade him, he begins to realize that his greatest struggle isn’t against monsters or ancient curses… but against the fractured parts of himself. To move forward, he must face the one enemy he’s never truly fought: himself. View Less
