Many accounts, one upheaval

Set in Epheria after the fall of the Order, this novella turns to the competing stories that have grown around that world-changing event. Campfire tales, bardic versions and personal recollections offer different explanations, making the question of why the Order fell central to the book. Its fantasy premise connects the making of history with the limits of individual perspective: what people witness and hear shapes the truth they carry. Presented as the final novella in The Bound and The Broken, it brings the series’ focus on the fall of the Order to the question of which accounts can be trusted.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers following The Bound and The Broken who want its final novella.
  • Epic fantasy readers interested in contested histories and different accounts of a pivotal event.
  • Readers drawn to stories about perspective and the uncertainty of truth.

Book overview

The final novella in The Bound and The Broken is coming, September 29th 2026.

 

The world changed the night The Order fell. The very foundations of Epheria twisted and cracked. Tales of that night have been weaved across the length and breadth of the continent - whispered at campfires, recounted to children at night, regaled before crowds of thousands. Every silver-tipped tongue tells a different story; every bard spins their own web.

 

But what is the truth? Every soul in Epheria knows The Order fell, but why did it fall?

 

The truth is a fickle thing. It shifts and changes, blurs and fades. It is in the eye of the beholder, in the heart of the fighter. Each soul is shaped and moulded by its own unique experiences in life. One truth, the things a person sees and hears, is not the truth of another.

 

No two truths are the same. Within the stories that are sung, there is only one certainty:

 

The Truth will set you free - or it will break you.
