Embers of Darkness

Flames of Adventure

By: C. C. Milton

Narrated by: Paige Felger

At the age of three, Aluxes's entire village was slaughtered and she was the sole survivor. Found by the nun Mildred, she was raised in an orphanage. Just being half-human can make life difficult for some, but it is harder for Aluxes as her half is unknown, and people fear what they do not know. Surviving the harsh reality of being constant bullied by others has filled her with two desires—to become a warrior to earn the respect of others and to find out about her past.

Now 16, she is considered an adult and can sign up for the military. With anger in her heart and hatred on her mind, will she find the peace she's been striving for? Or will it lead her down a dark path? In this unforgiving world? Only time will tell.
