Tal Mattis spent most of his life as a thief-even though he was never good at it. One morning though, a stranger from across the world meets Tal and he is summoned to accompany the stranger to meet a family he never knew he had. However, when Tal's guide is murdered, he must make the hard decision of taking the trip across the world by himself with his magical cat, Fadinglight, and later, a new guide named Khari Saren. Our little group finds themselves in several battles and challenges in their travels, including an evil king's minions that pursue our heroes closely and ancient sorcerers who claim to bend the will of dragons. Come along on the first journey to a Lost Kingdom
