08 – BOOK ONE – TOLL – CHAPTER SEVEN – AGÁPI

07 – BOOK ONE – TOLL – CHAPTER SIX – FILÍ

02 – BOOK ONE – TOLL – CHAPTER ONE – ARCHÍ
The world and planet I’ve called home since my birth is named Albion. It is a swirling concoction of islands large and small.

01 – BOOK ONE – TOLL – PROLOGUE – ELEFTHERÍA
Darkness takes many forms. Some may be friendly, others vicious, spiteful, vindictive, malicious. Trust of the darkness needs to be earned, never given. Never handed over without question.
