Stavin DragonBlessed

This is the story of Stavin Kel'Aniston. A boy trained as a warrior, he serves his people as a caravan guard to obtain gold for their community. Stavin earned dragon-scale armor from the dragon on the mountain for his bravery, but the gift of the dragon comes at a price. Thieves, brigands, and ne'er-do-wells of every kind are attracted to Stavin. As the summer passes, Stavin fights for his life and the honor of his name.

Warleader Sixth Stavin Kel'Aniston. In the entire 217-year history of Kavinston as a free community, no boy has ever won an officer's star on his first expedition. Now, Stavin is embarking on his second expedition. The question on everyone's mind is simple: What kind of trouble will Stavin get into this time?

Warleader Fifth Stavin Kel'Aniston. With just two years as a caravan guard behind him, he has exceeded the accomplishments of every other Warrior in Kavinston. He earned his first star on his first expedition. He'd upgraded his star on his second expedition. He also founded a Trading House in Evandia. Then he came between the king and an assassin, and received a commission in the Evandian Royal Guard for his heroism. After that, his life got really interesting.

Prince Stavin Zel'Andral. Of all the things Stavin had dreamed he might become, this was by far the wildest. He was now second in line to the crown of Evandia. It seemed that he had achieved everything he wanted. But it only seemed that way to others. Now Chosen, he is Prince Stavin, Warmaster Zel'Andral. While the fate of Farindia remains an open question, Kel'Kavin is now Evandian territory. Stavin takes his family to Twin Bridges to introduce them to King Kalin, and finds new challenges. Not everyone is happy with his new status.

What do you do when there are no more challenges in your life? For Stavin Ne'Aniston Zel'Andral, the thrill of being a prince had rapidly paled. He was a prince of Evandia, but would never sit on the throne. He was the first person to earn the four hollowed stars of a Senior Warmaster, but was forbidden to participate in a war. He was a scribe who would never teach anyone but his own children. He was a scholar who didn't have time to research anything but trade. All his hopes and dreams, his plans for the future, had fallen aside when King Kalin had adopted him.

Prince Stavin of Evandia. King Stavin of Coravia. Senior Warmaster Zel'Andral. What does having everything mean when it isn't what you wanted? King Kalin has sent Stavin on yet another Trade Mission to the other kingdoms to ensure their Traders' Guilds are adhering to the agreements between the kingdoms. Stavin finds that Reynadia holds the estate and town of Aniston, the original home of Stavin's birth-clan, Kel'Aniston. There he finds that the Aniston Clans worship the elder Gods Above. Stavin triggers a response from Arandar, the highest of the Gods Above, and finds himself Blessed.
