Elaine is ripped from this world to Pallos, a land of unlimited possibilities made real by a grand system governing classes, skills, and magic. Join Elaine as she travels around Pallos, discovering all the wonders and mysteries of the world, trying to find a place where she belongs, hunting those elusive mangos, all while the ominous Dragoneye Moons watch her every move.

Escaping from the devastating battle between the dragon and the Guardians, Elaine and the dwarves have fallen deep into an abandoned, unused mineshaft. Danger lurks around every corner, from starvation, traps, orcs, and more! Elaine must survive in the hostile stone tomb, cut away from the sky, away from her friends and comrades. She needs to find a way to escape, or be buried forever.

Elaine and Iona have graduated from the School of Sorcery and Spellcraft and are out to try and find her old immortal mentor, Night. Travel isn't easy. Different cultures have different ideas of travelers. Plagues and Pekari stalk the Eventide Eclipse. And Night has never been the easiest to find, even when they knew where he was. If he's even still alive. 23,456 years is a long time, even for an Immortal as focused on surviving as Night is. Their travels take them to Exterreri, where the ruling vampires have clouded the skies, blotting out the sun to protect against their greatest weakness.

In the magical world of Pallos, Elaine can finally breathe for a moment after the horrors of the Han Civil War. Engaged to the love of her life, Iona, Elaine believes she has found peace. However, the tranquility is shattered when three formidable phoenixes descend from the Phoenix Peaks, claiming Auri must go with them for her own good. With heavy hearts, Elaine and Iona watch as Auri disappears into the sky, bound by a promise to return.

Powerful Immortals, living for eternity, have had centuries to millennia to build up their power, wary of their neighbors doing the same thing. When the first shot is fired, thousands of plans and doomsday weapons are unleashed, once again nearly scouring all life from the face of Pallos. Elaine is having none of this nonsense. Tossed from one crisis to another like a leaf in the wind, Elaine and the rest of the Eventide Eclipse are stretched to their limits, doing everything in their power to save lives.

The Demon King extends his reach, attempting to grasp the world in his hands. The New Remus Empire attempts to revive the ancient civilization, dreaming of a worldwide empire that will last for eternity. Elaine and the rest of the Eventide Eclipse are caught in the middle, both sides demanding they bend the knee and pay tribute to their new overlords. But they're not the only ones who wish to see empires fall, kings toppled, and for a new era to rise from the ashes!

Elaine's mission through the fairy ring went horribly wrong, and she finds herself in Pallos once again—over 20,000 years in the future. All she has are her friends, her magic, and the clothes on her back. Fighting their way out of the wilderness, they quickly meet Iona, a wandering paladin of the Valkyrie order. She's heading to the School of Sorcery and Spellcraft, and Elaine joins her: To learn wizardry. To figure out her place in the world and where she wants to go next. To get her third class. To kiss cute women. To eat some tasty mangos. To read books, at long last.

Elaine's adventures continue at Ranger Academy! Will she pass and validate Julius' trust in her? Or will she fail out and need to find a new career?

After adventuring beyond the wall for over a year, Elaine has her triumphant return home! A high level doesn't mean all challenges are solved, though. She's got a brand new hatchling to try and keep alive. General Augustus staged a military coup, becoming Emperor Augustus. Julius is missing. Artemis is enslaved. Will she be able to keep Auri alive? Free Artemis? Find out what happened with Julius? And can she avoid the machinations of the new Emperor? Most importantly—Is her family still alive?

Elaine learns how to be a Ranger and about the cold realities of fire magic, healing, and life at the bottom of the food chain.

Elaine wird aus dieser Welt nach Pallos gerissen, einem Land der unbegrenzten Möglichkeiten, das mit einem großartigen System, das Klassen, Fähigkeiten und Magie regelt, Wirklichkeit wird.

Die Formorianer, angeführt von den gigantischen Königinnen, haben die letzte Verteidigungslinie der Menschheit durchbrochen! Elaine, jetzt Wächterin Dawn, und der Rest der Wächter müssen an die Front eilen, um die Situation zu stabilisieren und den 2500 Jahre alten Krieg gegen die Formorianer zu einem großen Finale zu bringen.

Die Ranger Akademie ist bekanntlich feindselig gegenüber ihren Teilnehmern. Vom Wetter, das innerhalb von Minuten von Hagel auf tropische Stürme umschlägt, über tödliche Steine, die nur wenige Zentimeter von den Köpfen der Auszubildenden entfernt abgefeuert werden, bis hin zu schlechtem Essen und salzigem Wasser, von den Drill-Instruktoren gebrüllten Obszönitäten und nächtlichem Geflüster über Versagen - alles auf der Insel ist darauf ausgerichtet, die Auszubildenden zum Aufgeben zu bringen.
