🔥 The White Flame has faded. The Shadow stirs once more.
In the age-old realm of Eldertide, beneath the brooding Ironcrest Mountains, lies a sealed forge where star-fire once danced with earth-fire — and from that union was born the White Flame, a beacon of unity among dwarves, elves, men, and halflings. But the light was lost… and the world splintered.

Now, dark tidings spread. Whispers speak of Morgrath’s return, and with him, the rise of ancient evils long thought buried. When a shard of the lost Silverbloom Crystal emerges, it falls to Thistle of Willowdale, a quiet-hearted halfling, to journey beyond her hearth and into myth.

Alongside her steadfast friend Rory and a fellowship of outcasts, Thistle must brave shattered dwarrow halls, awaken forgotten magics, and outwit the ancient traps that guard the mountain’s heart — all to rekindle the White Flame before darkness swallows the Deep Realms forever.

Standing in their way: brutal orc warbands, fire-wrought wraiths, and a doombound guardian forged in the old wars of flame and shadow.

⚔️ Chains of the Mountain is Book Two of the Chronicles of Eldertide — a richly woven epic of legendary quests, deep-rooted magic, and halfling valor in the face of overwhelming darkness. A perfect journey for readers who long for the timeless spirit of The Hobbit, the mythic resonance of The Witcher, and the heart of Legends & Lattes.

Where ancient evil awakens...
And the smallest hearts shine brightest.
