Alongside, a scholarly Wizard, Prof. Timothy Rothschild, who hunts down dark beings to destroy them and to end their plans. Polly at first, found it a mind-boggling experience - shocked to learn about the existence of a magical realm in the United Kingdom. Polly got used to the idea of magic. Being confronted by the daily reality of it through the discovery of ancient prophecies, magical books like the Tome of Herne, a High Priestess who set warrior tests, Pagan mystical swords - Polly's very own Sword of Hestia. Pagan temples, with hidden treasures and to top it all, the Goddess revealed the location of a sacred Dragon Egg for Polly to guard.

SAMPLE
Chapter one - The Birth of the Chosen
We all hear the thrum. This thudding beat. Part of every living being on this planet - we are all connected by the rhythm of its pulse. Connecting Rhythm. This strong thud, vibrating in our mortal ears. To be alive is to hear it. There is no life without. This is the sound of the universe, calling out across time and space. We are gifted to hold it within us and guard it for our own, for a short while.
To be alive. To experience. To dance in the savagery and tenderness of the world. This is its gift.
We hear it from the first consciousness awakened in us, in the comfort of our mother's womb - we are connected in this truth. Fluttering and banging against our ribs throughout our lives.
Upon the day of our death, when it is handed back; the good in us all takes time to reflect on three things; how willingly we have used it, how openly we have shared it and how connected to others with love we have been - to exist is to hear this rhythm. The Rhythm of Life - the Heart.
***
In the dark space underground. In the chamber made by the roots of the mythical Willow Tree, the scaly egg nestles in the bones of the earth. Waiting for the warmth, the touch of The Chosen; to ignite it into being. The pulse is getting louder, stronger and bringing life into the world. A life that will change the path of all living things. The legend will eventually awaken, in the creature rising. The Bringer of Myth, of fable and of rebirth. A creature older than time, older than the foundations of the earth. But for now, it waits under root and tree, nesting. Quiet. Waiting for the other of its kind - the twin.
End of sample - I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I did writing it.
