Introduction Mikhail has been exiled to the frozen wastes of Siberia. He finds a lone child there, and decides to save the boy's life. After meeting two others, tragedy strikes and they have to flee to another world. Will they be able to adapt to this new world and the magic within?  About the story In this story I'm trying to focus on character development and interactions, and developing a feel for what readers like and don't like about my writing. My intention is to write a dark fantasy story, but not one where all hope gets sucked out of your soul. Of course, the main purpose is to entertain, and I hope I'll achieve that at least! Release Schedule I will be posting every Wednesday and Sunday most likely, to ensure quality and remain able to do my job. About me I'm a 29 year old dutch guy who's living in Greece at the moment. I've always loved reading ever since I was little, and around 3/4 months ago I started writing a bit more seriously myself. Which is strange, because I tend to not take things seriously, ever. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it, I'm looking forward to reading all of your opinions!
