Raízes dos Caídos

Roots of the Fallen - Portuguese Edition "Raízes dos Caídos"

In Roots of the Fallen, the great Eldertree stands at the heart of the Bloodwood Forest, its ancient roots pulsing with magic and power. For generations, the tribes that surround it have fought to control its essence, for within its veins lies the ability to resurrect the spirit totems, the Wraithkin - ancestral beings who protect their people. But as the war deepens, the totems begin to change, their noble spirits twisting into something darker, something sinister. Whispers of corruption spread, and the fragile balance of life and death threatens to shatter forever.
Amid the chaos, three unlikely heroes emerge. Awalin, a talented sorcerer and descendent of legends yearns for a life untouched by war. When her parents' dangerous secrets pull her into conflict, Awalin must choose between family and destiny. Belaric, a lonely boy from the poor villages, dreams of escaping his cruel mother's grasp.
Guided only by his loyal companion, a mysterious blue singing bird, he finds himself at the center of a prophecy that could change everything. And Fenris, a fierce man hiding a shameful past, put in risk everything he dears the most for a friend's disappearance.
His path leads him to forbidden truths, where loyalty and betrayal blur beyond recognition.
As their fates intertwine, the trio uncovers a terrifying secret: the Eldertree's power comes at a cost. The ancestral spirits are no longer protectors but jailers, bound to an eternal cycle of decay and madness. To save their beloved ones and their people, Fenris, Belaric, and Awalin must challenge everything they know about magic, sacrifice, and the price of freedom.
But with war on the horizon and powerful enemies closing in, time is running out. The tribes will stop at nothing to claim the tree's power for themselves, even if it means destroying the world around them. The roots run deep, and the fallen rise.
A tale of war, magic, and ancient secrets, Roots of the Fallen is the first installment of the Bloodwood Chronicles, where heroes are forged in the fires of betrayal and hope grows even in the darkest of places.
