PREVIOUSLY ON THE ALDONN CHRONICLES: Frankie was a simple orphan thief who never had a last name, a member of a guild that preyed on people like her, vulnerable people without anyone to look after them. They took her in, and trained her to be amazing at what she does, but they then betrayed her to the guards and had her locked away. It was in prison that she met a strong blonde man by the name of Aldonn, a man without any memory of his past. Together they escaped back to the capitol city of Capsin, where they’ve teamed up with a disgraced guard named Edward, disgraced for sleeping with the King’s daughter Princess Penelope, and they have been working with him to slowly bring down the guild that betrayed Frankie, and stop their power hungry leader Lee with a little help from Frankie’s old guildmates Richter and Sean. Meanwhile King George, ruler of Capsin and the surrounding country of Memroxia , has been getting increasingly frustrated as his kingdom has continued to stagnate. Diplomatic relations have been falling apart, and he’s decided to turn to the wisdom and guidance of the Mage Council. However, Princess Penelope believes the mages have a secret agenda of their own, and that they might not have her father’s best interests at heart. When she learned, alongside Frankie, that Lee was turning his attention to the Mage Council, they both entered the Mage Tower with warnings of an impending attack. Their warnings we’re not taken seriously, except by an apprentice named Calvin. Ordered by his master Elmeiser Ducard to watch the Princess, he has instead been helping Penelope shut down a sex trafficking ring involving children and love potions. The disgraced mage in on the plot managed to escape along with the location of their child prisoners. Prisoners that include Leah Ducard, daughter to Calvin’s master and a burgeoning mage in her own right. Oh and throughout all this chaos, Frankie and Edward managed to both get doused by a love potion while working a job at the docks on a mission to keep the Thieves Guild from stealing an important shipment meant for the Mage Council. They await Calvin’s antidote, a potion that thankfully continues to brew without the mage’s watchful eye, and Frankie hopes to continue ahead with their mission despite their peculiar handicap. _________ My brand is 99% Geek found at 99geek.ca I'm a writer, writing chapters of novels like episodes of TV shows, releasing them monthly on my Patreon page at patreon.com/99geek There's Urban Fantasy tales about a teenage girl turned into a vampire against her will, or a scorned lover investigating paranormal phenomena, or a journalist covering stories in the middle east.
