Overview

Crossbow Isle - The Quest Part 1

The short winter was waning and the snow was melting as Enyana and Y Ddraig Goch flew over the northern regions of Crossbow Isle to find out what the damages that Oqualorak's landslides had caused were. By incident, they found out that one of the main tributaries to the Ardara River was blocked by a massive landslide and a huge lake had formed behind the dam of debris, which was stretching the dams holding capacity to the brink. If it broke, Oqualorak would have accomplished what the Orontai had not been able to accomplish, - to eradicate life in the area of Caradoc Castle and far beyond.

After the Trinity of Enyana, Elensaar and Y Ddraig Goch had coped with the danger, they searched the vale for signs of lost lives and found by chance a queerly looking artefact that had been buried long time ago and was entirely out of place in this uninhabited valley. It was engraved with gilded ancient elven script and its material had some surprising properties unknown to anyone as of yet.

Just as if by another and quite unlikely chance, another fragment of the same material was falling into their hands along with one member of the oldest races on Crossbow Isle, - a dwarf of the Pjodroerir clan of whom no one, - not even the immortals and elves - had known still to exist and live in the bellies of the northern mountains.

That, however, was not the only surprise Crossbow Isle and its mountains held in stock, because now, they discovered that many traces of a long bygone history was about to reveal itself, guiding the curious minds of our friends from one much unexpected discovery to another.

About the Author

Irefenia Salgonda;

Very early had Irefenia developed a passion for writing. Her essays and short stories were circulated amongst friends, later she wrote longer stories but never considered publishing any of them.
Once she had met Elensaar Gelindor, she accompanied him on journeys around the world, which allowed her to outlive her passion and fascination for ancient cultures, their history, and mythology, on four continents.

During that time, she studied the English language and mastered as foreign-language correspondent with distinction. Especially during the time of travelling, she had extensively pursued her writing passion; therefore, it was not much of a surprise as she presented the first draft chapters of "Ithilhin - Moonchild" to her partner. Fascinated by the fantastic option to cast their long hedged notions into a breathtaking tale, they developed the idea to "Crossbow Isle", - but this time with aim of publishing it.

Elensaar Gelindor...

...had always a passion for music, art, and technology, a combination that led him all his life to the most unusual places and events.
However, as restlessness might have lain in his blood, he followed the example of one of his grandfather's, - who had migrated in the early years of his life to China, - so eventually, he took up an assignment that led him to West-Africa, where he worked for several years.
Once he had met Irefenia, for many years they both traveled around the globe in pursuit of business and lastly settled in Malaysia.
After a turbulent time that saw the introduction of new and unusual businesses, they moved to Borneo, where Irefenia developed the first draft chapters of "Ithilhin - Moonchild".
From that point onwards, they both worked out the story's plot and its central theme. Lastly, Elensaar decided to author Irefenia's red-line-script into the version of this book.
