A Darkness Awakens Helena Lancaster

Ilysia has long been a land of mysticism and magic. When the Dark Empresss swept across the land, expanding her rule from the kingdom of the Dark Fae to encompass of of Ilysia, opposition was swift from a coalition of the races which dwelled there. Together, they were able to save nearly half of the land from her evil clutches, although the unrest caused many to flee their homes in search of a place free from the Empress's taint. This new home was Corinthia, peopled by races with technology far advanced from their own. The only thing this land lacked was magic, save for that which the Ilysians brought with them. Carefully, they guarded their traditions, passing them to their descendants in case of future need. It was into this new world that seventeen-year-old Addí was raised, with a destiny too large for her. Centuries before her birth, it was phophecied that she would be the one with the power to decide the fate of Ilysia and all of its people, however, the prophecy does not tell her whether it will be for the dark or the light. She must decide which path she will choose to tread. In Ilysia, the Dark Empress gathers her forces for a final stand, the White Fae search for the missing heir to the White Fae Throne, and in Corinthia, the young train to fight a war they have always known would come. Both sides will experience betrayal as the new generation find themselves struggling with the fine line that divides good and evil, and the fate of the world is in the hands of one seventeen-year-old girl.
