The Spirus

One mysterious girl, one kidnapped princess, and one legend

Soryn was promised answers to who she was if she left everything she knew to go to the mainland and deliver a message to the Tempris princess. She's been taught to hide everything about herself from humans and tribe members alike because she is different and powerful. Esylle, the Tempris princess, is convinced she is her kidnapped daughter, Lisana. Soryn knows better. Her real parents gave her up because she is dangerous.

The tribes find her and she finds out the truth about herself. The tribe princes are all fighting over her. She doesn't want to pick any of them because there are things she loves about all of them. She just wants to go back home and not get involved with this war between the tribes and the humans. She doesn't really have a choice.

The Spirus-Belisarus' Diary
In “The Spirus”, we are introduced to Soryn and her destiny. Only her tutor knows about the first nineteen years of her life and why everything was kept for her. After the battle at Idric Island, we find her tutor, Belisarus’ diary. He wrote about her as she grew, how he taught her to use her gifts, and why he kept everything from her. This is his diary. How did he take her from a locked, guarded room without waking her parents? How did he hide he was Theran from Soryn, given all of her gifts? Why didn’t he tell her who he is to her and why, if he knew who she was, didn’t he tell her and teach her to use all of the gifts she was supposed to have?

The Spirus-The Lord's Uprising
Seventeen years after The Spirus, Lisana and her children live in the idyllic peace she brought once she learned what she was meant for. That peace is suddenly shattered as two separate attacks are carried out on her family. Something that neither smells human, nor tribe member comes at Oris, Terros, Leodos, her brother, and child while they are hunting in the woods. Lisana is taking her youngest daughter, her son Rayne, and Neptis and Fluvis to the sea for a swim. She smells something strange and unfamiliar in the forest. As they return from their swim, something from the forest causes a wound to Lisana that she can’t heal herself for the first time in her entire life. At the same time, there is an attack on the humans, causing destruction no one has ever seen before. What is this strange smell in the forest that is neither human, nor tribe member that can cause that kind of destruction that does not differentiate between humans and the tribes?

The Spirus-The Gifted Child
In “The Spirus-The Lord’s Uprising”, we learn Lisana’s youngest child, Auris, has a destiny similar to her mother. Esylle ends her rule and Lisana must do what she’s never wanted to do and take the throne. In addition to teaching Auris to use her gifts, Lisana must rule the people and the tribes while also making her other children feel special. A mysterious illness befalls Lisana that appears to have driven her mad that she can’t heal herself. With her life in the hands of a human healer, a Theran healer, and seven-year-old Auris, her family struggles to figure out what is wrong and how to heal her while keeping it from the humans, less they try to hurt her while she can’t fight back. Everyone is thinking, but denying to themselves that her gifts and everything she’s done have finally turned against her and driven her mad due to her human blood. Her life rests in the hands of the seven-year-old next Spirus
