<b>"There are many who have walked these halls, my dear, their mark on the Tower standing for all to see. And soon, it will be your turn."</b><br><br>To be Matriarch of the Shimmering Tower is to wield power beyond imagining, for it is to lead the greatest mages outside of Dragon Isle. It is a seat of immense responsibility, and a seat little Naeve Earthchild would rather spit on that sit in. Fiercely independent, she was a child who would rather dance in the sun with her imaginary friends or while away the evening reading tales of wonder, than sit in a stuffy classroom learning what it takes to lead. But when you are destined to rule a place even the greatest kings show deference to, "I just want to be me" can only go so far.<br><br>But how do you turn someone that feisty and strong-willed into a loving leader without breaking her spirit? To Amala, right hand of the current Matriarch and Naeve's closest friend in all the world, the answer is simple - let the Matriarchs of ages past do it. From fending off lich lords to unravelling betrayals, their stories were as rich as they were varied, and were Naeve to see the world through their eyes, and the legacies they left behind, she would doubtless want to take her place amongst them. And Amala knew just which tales to tell.<br><br>The Earthchild Chronicles is a collection of short stories about those who once led the Shimmering Tower, the great beacon of light at the heart of the Unbroken Bond series, and all within a story of itself. If you're after memorable stories of magic and wonder, you'll love delving into this wonderful web of intricate storytelling by J.B.
