Book description

[The Drakeroot clan was led by Desmond Drakeroot along with his brothers. Desmond had a reputation as a man willing to do anything for power and influence to one day separate from the empire and create their own legacy, he was even willing to give up his and his children humanity in the process . One day , a Strange man calling himself "Tane" Showed to the doorstep of Desmond and his family in a time of strife for the family. Tane was offering them Power and Influence and a chance for a better future. Desmond took the offer and started a long and arduous path towards corruption. He even went as far as altering his children under the guidance of Tane, the rest of the clan did the same with their own heirs. The Drakeroot clan became an extension of Tane, and now they are lost forever in the darkness of their master's ambition. The wife of Desmond , Meriana Drakeroot was disgusted by what her husband had become, she left him and the clan with their youngest daughter, Emeri , the only one she could save .The province under the rule of the Drakeroot clan ; Efrein, is a land of Darkness and corruption. The once fertile land is now infertile and Barren. The population of Efrein is used as cattle for the Drakeroot and Tane's experiments, and most of the people here are treated as less than humans. The people of Efrein have given up hope and have lost all sense of identity, as their masters have taken everything from them. Some men have been mixed into monsters called "chimeras" by Tane and the Drakeroot clan. The remaining town and villages are mostly ruined with the population who remained sane barely surviving. The animals have been mutated and changed into hideous abominations. The once thriving wildlife is now reduced to mindless beasts, their existence fueled by the twisted magics of the Drakeroot and Tane.]

[Tane : Tane serve the Drakeroot clan , his origins are mysterious and he seem to be the one who led the family toward Dark magic experiment and communing with dark outer gods. Tane is pale skin with Purple eyes and is always well dress , seing no need for armor. This "Man" might not be human at all. Tane real name is actually Tanôr'irean and he is one of the Ki'ante who reappeared on Runa , seing the potential in the Drakeroot clan Darkness , he decided to gain their trust and promise them power in return of stripping away some of their humanity and "using" the population of Efrein. The Ki'ante are an ancient race deeply connected to magic , most of their kind disappeared 34000 years ago but some reappeared in today's era]
