Produktbeschreibung

The Scrolls of Apollonia transform history into the stuff of legend, and legend into the stuff of prophecy.

--W. A. Roberts

Time Is the Real Monster

When it was first reported that a team of archaeologists had discovered cursed scrolls written in a time before history, most scholars were skeptical, to say the least. The story is that a shepherd, who, while praying in a cave near the southern coast of Mygdonia, found a bronze basket with seven large scrolls in it. Not knowing what to make of his discovery, he brought the basket to his pastor in Thessalonica. Shortly thereafter, both men ended up dead. This was the first sign that there was something in this alluring basket of words that was not supposed to get out.

The first scroll of Apollonia tells the story of how a civil war became a world war and how a world war destroyed a magical land of immense art and wealth, where fairy-tale lives were the norm and dreams were a reality. The world was divided between the gods Apollo and Artemis, who represented the Sun and Moon respectively. When Dominique La Celeste, the daughter of the Fletcher of Dantea, fell in love with her "enemy," Rexel Lightborn, the son of the Bowmaster of Apollonia, the end of Time itself was set into motion. Theirs is a timeless story of tragedy and betrayal that can only be described as monstrous.

Because of the calamities presented in these scrolls and the subsequent tragedies that have occurred since their rediscovery, some audacious scholars continue to make the claim that these scrolls are cursed, and that reading them could put one's life in peril. Obviously, claims such as these cannot be substantiated. Nevertheless, here is a warning: if you do choose to read these scrolls, please do so very carefully.
