Book excerpt: Something is amiss in the kingdom of Lorenth. During one of the expansion missions, the humans determine they are no longer alone in the world as they once thought. In fact, the men are viciously attacked by the elves of Illu`Dar. Sentient, magically adept dragons, dwarves, elemental races, treants, dryads, sprites, ice elves, and woodland elves compose the fae races that for generations have lived in a silent pact with the humans, never revealing their presence until the humans breached their borders. Meanwhile, a restless and vile taint seeks a vessel to dominate—a living corruption spawned from the conflict between the three imprisoned deities: Sarik, Ethoni, and Deimar. This taint finds such a vessel in Seneschal Dean—second in command of the human armies of Lorenth, led by the noble priest-king, Arimas. Age-old prophecies entwine around events leading to the beginning of the time of silence—the time when the Tear of Deimar made its call, searching for the promised Lightbringer who must eventually stand to face the Seed of Corruption and right the balance of Caliyon for good.

Download or read book Transformative Change in Western Thought written by Ingo Gildenhard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking volume maps the shifting place and function of marvelous transformations from antiquity to the present day. Shape-shifting, taking animal bodies, miracles, transubstantiation, alchemy, and mutation recur and echo throughout ancient and modern writing and thinking and continue in science fiction today as tales of gene-splicing and hybridisation. The idea of metamorphosis lies in uneasy coexistence with orderly world views and it is often cast out, or attributed to enemies. Augustine and the church fathers consider shape-shifting ungodly; Enlightenment thinkers suppress alchemy as unscientific; genetically-modified wheat and stem-cell research are stigmatised as unnatural. Yet the very possibility of radical transformation inspires hope just as it frightens. A provocative, theorising, trans-historical history, this book ranges across classics, literature, history, philosophy, theology and anthropology. From Homer and Ovid to Proust and H. P. Lovecraft and through figures from Proteus to Kafka's Fly and toSpiderman, four historical surveys are combined with nine case studies to show the malleable, yet persistent, presence of transformation throughout Western cultural history.
