When the Mountain Shook

Two young lovers. One ancient evil. A mountain that remembers when the world was young. Var and Neena have chosen the impossible: love across the lines of a blood feud that has defined their mountain villages for generations. Now they're running, desperate, hunted by Neena's father Groz and his vengeance. The only sanctuary is the forbidden peak the elders whisper about but never name. There they find the Watcher, a relic of centuries past who knows what sleeps beneath the stone: the Ryzgas, a civilization of terrible power buried alive in their own arrogance. The villagers believe them myths. The Watcher knows better. In desperation, Var and Neena make a terrible choice: wake the sleeping tyrants and harness their strength against their enemies. But some forces, once awakened, do not care who summoned them. The mountain shakes. The old evil opens its eyes. And Var must face what lurks in the dark below, or watch everything he loves burn. A pulse-pounding adventure where star-crossed lovers discover that some feuds are ancient for a reason, and some doors should never be opened.
