Order of the Winged Sun

Cover Art by Alison Hunt

Little is known
Of the demon winged sun
Scion of Durag
That was shed
And formed a bitter tree
Decimated once
Reborn for revenge
Against the sun-kissed monsters
Whose fangs
Tore their throats
Long have they waited
Huddled in shadows
Away from Durag’s love
Dwindling to nothing
Until a weapon
Glorious and terrifying
Was bestowed upon their Lord

Witness the Duragians’ new crusade in War of Nytefall: Eradication

About Charles Yallowitz

Charles E. Yallowitz was born, raised, and educated in New York. Then he spent a few years in Florida, realized his fear of alligators, and moved back to the Empire State. When he isn't working hard on his epic fantasy stories, Charles can be found cooking or going on whatever adventure his son has planned for the day. 'Legends of Windemere' is his first series, but it certainly won't be his last.

    Great poem! Reminds me of how some revolutions were birthed–in the shadows until the right time appeared.

    This makes me wonder if the Fist of Durag came from Durag at all. And if not, from whom? And what is that being’s agenda?
