Damnation Of The Realm

Richard Vandross, a power-hungry warlock has claimed four of the five Orbs of Eden's Serpent. If he can gain the fifth, he will become an unstoppable force. Even with the four he already possesses, he has gathered armies of demons, orcs, and dark-elf mages. Worse, the orbs not only give him power, they're driving him insane. Destruction, rather than simple power, has become increasingly the goal rather than simply his tool. Against Vandross, his former ally, Dread Knight Byron of Sidius, has gathered a small band of warriors and mages. But they're tired and discouraged by the loss of their friend, David Spore. Their risk of betrayal grows larger the closer they come to finding the orb. Because the Orbs of Eden's Serpent aren't simply tools, they have goals of their own, and the orbs desperately want to be united--whether in the person of Richard Vandross, or in that of Byron.
