"It is hard to remember sometimes that there was a time when we didn't know each other. A time before the friendships that held our world together, before we razed one kingdom and raised another. Before we were famous, before the road that led to war, before any of us died. Before our children, when we were children ourselves.
We were young, and we were lost, and we found each other."
You hold in hand a collection of tales about how those infamous adventurers who became known as the Company of Six first met. They are tales of time and timelessness: a monster's buried heart; a mage-haunted lake; a rampaging elemental; a dangerous flood, and the foolish quest for a lost goat.
CHILDREN of ELD is, above all, a book of stories about the search for belonging that each young person must endure as they approach the threshold of adulthood, and those rare childhood friendships that make discovering yourself more bearable.
