Golden Terrace: Volume 1

THE GOLDEN RULER

Nyxius, a brilliant young scholar with an unparalleled ability to decipher the ancient Pentarchivum, dreams of becoming the greatest archaeologist the world has ever known. But his thirst for knowledge soon becomes entwined with a darker ambition as he embarks on a perilous journey to uncover the secrets of forgotten civilizations. The more he unravels, the more enemies rise from the shadows—ruthless forces determined to halt his quest for truths that could topple kingdoms. As his travels take him deeper into the heart of a mysterious and volatile world, Nyxius discovers an even more personal mission: to find his long-lost twin sister, stolen away in the chaos of his childhood. The only way to locate her is through the throne of the kingdom, currently held by a cold and unyielding queen. Driven by desperation and a hunger for power, Nyxius sets his sights on the crown, planning to overthrow the queen and seize control of the kingdom's vast resources in order to search for his sister. But what begins as a pursuit for family quickly spirals into a dangerous game of politics, betrayal, and ancient magic. As Nyxius moves closer to the throne, he finds that there are deeper, more sinister forces at play—forces tied to the very secrets he seeks to uncover. The ancient Pentarchivum holds more than just knowledge; it harbors powers that could destroy everything Nyxius holds dear, including the very kingdom he hopes to rule. With enemies closing in on all sides and secrets from the past threatening to unravel the present, Nyxius must decide how far he’s willing to go to claim his birthright. But in a world where power and knowledge are intertwined, the line between ruler and tyrant may be far thinner than he ever imagined. Will Nyxius rise to the throne, or will the weight of his ambitions bring everything crashing down around him? ---

WAR AMONG KINGDOMS: VOLUME ONE

In a time when kingdoms rose and fell under the weight of ambition and betrayal, War Among Kingdoms weaves the intertwined fates of rulers navigating political intrigue, familial conflict, and the chaos of war. Set in a richly imagined world inspired by the golden age of West Africa, the story begins with the Kingdom of Benin under the reign of King Akenzua, who seeks to restore peace to a fractured realm scarred by his father’s conquests. The tale shifts to Prince Nehikhare, a boy raised on tales of vengeance by his grandfather, King Akhigbe. Consumed by the desire to reclaim Benin’s dominance, Nehikhare secretly amasses followers and wages brutal raids against neighboring kingdoms, ultimately defying his father’s peaceful reign. When his rebellion is discovered, Akenzua banishes him, but Nehikhare’s survival and transformation into King Nehizena soon threaten the fragile stability of the region. At the heart of the story is Queen Nosaze, Akenzua’s daughter, who ascends the throne after her father’s death. Determined to protect her people and uphold her family’s legacy, Nosaze emerges as a formidable leader, forging alliances to defend the western kingdoms from a masked invader. Her journey becomes intertwined with King Sonni of Gao, an estranged ally harboring his own grudges, as they unite against a shared threat. As Nosaze and Sonni confront mounting challenges, rumors surface linking the masked invader to Nehikhare, shaking Nosaze’s resolve. The story crescendos in battles of epic proportions, including a brutal duel between Sonni and the ruthless King Piye, and the eventual confrontation with Nehikhare’s empire. Themes of loyalty, ambition, and the cost of vengeance drive the characters as they fight for survival and redemption in a world teetering on the edge of collapse.
