Volume 1 - Book 3 of the Tr Halsien ZjeurA Kiyron NovelDAWN OF THE FINAL PROPHECIESThe third in a gargantuan series of books spanning millennia. *** "And now, in the third of Lieoptay-Noot's Augured Climacterics, is the final path directly upon us, for that final door has been opened wide."Asju: Kkombinaar Yathesj to the Pirë Iprë Even as Lieoptay-Noot deepens his own understanding of life and all things esoteric, through his infrequent visitations from Iyrës, he educates and guides his student Faresay-Des on the mysteries of their world and how he pierces the veil of time. He knows there is still much to learn, with yet more to reveal. He knows also, that there is much he may never reveal. But perhaps some things must remain hidden to reach their optimal conclusion. Dooskiyron. The secret heart of Kiyron. Home to those who fled their surface world of Malkiyron at the end of the Second Iraath, during the devastation of Zaurbaar's Havoc. Their path may have diverged from that of the surface survivors, but their fates remain inextricably entwined. Thesik Zlaifë knows of Malkiyron. She knows all anyone could know about Lieoptay-Noot, for she has spent a very long lifetime studying him. For her it has always been no less than a lifelong obsession. Then she discovers hidden layers within the prophecies of Lieoptay-Noot. And for the first time, his augurs relate directly to Dooskiyron, alluding to individuals and events that will change the fate of everyone on the planet, both within and without. Somehow, Thesik is central to it all. If only she understood how. And why. But time is limited. VERY limited. They only have nine days to unravel what was foretold. Nine days to discover how to save Kiyron and all who inhabit it from destruction. Nine days to learn the most important lessons that their saviour Koazjuur'Iy imparted so very long ago. Nine days for Thesik to hold onto her faith in Koazjuur'Iy's words, as the world and life she thought she knew is challenged beyond all expectations. As the augurs are interpreted, with shocking new secrets being slowly revealed, unexpected allies gather. Many have been summoned from across a divided world. Androids. A Nktliflë Seer. One of the Bayith Pirë. One of the elusively alien Zos Taurzjlaas. Even the unfathomable Tabitiyt race are in attendance, and they may be central to the biggest surprise of all. Why else would they so unexpectedly make their presence more known? Meanwhile, on Malkiyron, war is coming, with an enemy that they're failing to comprehend. They could be central to these new predictions. An enemy determined to subjugate or destroy all of Kiyron, inside and out. Defying every efforts and all expectations, their power is spreading. But how can you win a war if you don't even know your enemy? And how do you trust your allies when they don't reveal all they know? *** On Kiyron, the perpetual confrontations between the destructive manipulations of Ligil-Yabesj and the transformational will of Koazjuur'Iy rise and fall as they weave across the outer shell of Malkiyron, finally breeching the inner sanctum of Dooskiyron. Interlacing the chaos, threads of awakening may yet make a difference, if only the many disparate groups and individuals spanning the divides of time can recognise a deeper truth so heavily shrouded by the veils of their perception. Weaving through 4 different time-lines, each story interlaces with the others, as they all lead irrevocably to their own dramatic conclusion, each one changing the fate of the entire planet.

Volume 1 - Book 2 of the Tr Halsien ZjeurA Kiyron NovelARRIVAL OF THE KAJIN RABIELThe second in a gargantuan series of books spanning millennia. *** "Darkness can never withstand light, no matter how it might try. Through my brother's awakening are we all un-glamoured. Through his choice, we all grant ourselves permission to join him."Asju: Kkombinaar Yathesj to the Pirë Iprë Nestled in Ristiek's lower mountains, Lieoptay-Noot, Nktliflë Seer to his people, friend and student of Iyrës, the not-yet-born Kajin Rabiel, continues to reveal a multitude of events that will shape the future of Malkiyron and Dooskiyron, the outer and inner worlds of Kiyron. His cryptic prophecies are dominated by the role of Iyrës and all the events that will become known as the Tr Halsien Zjeur. It is the time of the 2nd Augured Climacteric. All the nations of Malkiyron have moved on, with events from the 1st Augured Climacteric now considered little more than a footnote in time. The War of Deceptions is ancient history. The Banished Tribyoolien are considered little more than myth. But not everyone across the planet has forgotten. There are those who haven't slept while the world keeps turning. Their waiting is finally over. The one they've been anticipating has arrived. Raised in exile by his mother Til-Bray, one of the mythical Bayith Pirë of Doothu, and educated by the multi-soul entity known as Zjuubi'iel, Iyrës' journey into the world and his destiny finally begins. If he survives his transformation during the Siyath Dooloa, and survives his own death during the final test of Nhom-Dmaar, the world will never be the same again. The Kajin Rabiel of ancient prophecy will have arrived. Be they enemies or allies, those forces aware of his pending arrival think they are ready. But how do you prepare for a person foreseen to unravel events from the end of the War of Deceptions? How do you control someone powered by the divine will of an entire planet? Or conquer an individual destined to be the conduit for a divine force even greater than that? Yasj and his family certainly have no idea. But he's suddenly, inextricably, in their lives, and they'll do whatever they can to help. Especially Yasj. Feeling trapped on his family's farm, and aching for adventure, he wants more than the restricted life he sees before him can ever hope to provide. Somehow Iyrës is key to finally understanding his own life, and more significantly his own purpose, and he'll journey wherever Iyrës goes for answers. Threads in a very large tapestry are inter-weaving, drawing people inexorably together from across the planet: young Kiyrë, a child just entering her thirteenth aurbët, discovering abilities developing that she didn't think were even possible, nor what she really wants; her parents Zjolet and Diyal, each with their own secrets which are about to unravel; Zjuubi'iel weaving their own particular tapestry, one they've been progressing since the War of Deceptions; and Helier'Oasjaan, quietly manoeuvring events from Fathës, even as he attempts to comprehend the true intent of Zjuubi'iel and the unanswered questions of Lieoptay-Noot's Augurs. *** On Kiyron, the perpetual confrontations between the destructive manipulations of Ligil-Yabesj and the transformational will of Koazjuur'Iy rise and fall as they weave across the outer shell of Malkiyron, finally breeching the inner sanctum of Dooskiyron.

Volume 1 - Book 1 of the Tr Halsien ZjeurA Kiyron NovelAN ALLIANCE OF THREEThe first in a gargantuan series of books spanning millennia. *** "Let me focus this story upon but a few threads of the vast tapestry that is the world I know. Let me focus upon Tr Halsien Zjeur: The Three Augured Climacterics."Asju: Kkombinaar Yathesj to the Pire Ipre Nestled in Ristiek's lower mountains, Lieoptay-Noot, Nktliflë Seer to his people, friend and student of Iyrës, the not-yet-born Kajin Rabiel, foretells a multitude of events that will shape the future of Malkiyron and Dooskiyron, the outer and inner worlds of Kiyron. His cryptic prophecies include the Tr Halsien Zjeur. In the 1st Augured Climacteric, the War of Deceptions has arrived, the Central Kalayvyen States conquering one nation after another with ruthless efficiency. The outcome appears unstoppable and catastrophic. Zarith Gavet, a renowned seer with some powerful allies, may be Malkiyron's only hope for salvation. But only if he can utilise every resource at his disposal: Helier'Oasjaan, his most reliable android colleague and friend; Mumbles, the mysterious Ristiekaan Ninuuk, with a fondness for some of his most gifted students; and especially the talents of all the very unique students within Sjaarkrom Institute's Academy, all being groomed to put every meta skill they have and every other skill they learn, to full use across the planet. Three of those students are becoming increasingly important: twin sister and brother, Bisel and Padran, each developing at levels never before seen; and Koarvel, the Academy's newest recruit, with abilities that are virtually unknown, even to himself, and yet to be fully determined. But there's an unknown force at work, with incredible resources. They want the twins, dead if necessary. They know how to breach the Institute's defenses. They know how to control a person's mind. And they know how to kill with lethal brutality. In order to stop them, in order to even survive, Bisel and Padran must put aside their own growing differences and learn who these people are. And tied inextricably to that is a repeating question: "What is the meaning of 'SE'?" *** On Kiyron, the perpetual confrontations between the destructive manipulations of Ligil-Yabesj and the transformational will of Koazjuur'Iy rise and fall as they weave across the outer shell of Malkiyron, finally breeching the inner sanctum of Dooskiyron.
