Waking the Golden Goddess: A Dragon Lords of Valdier Adventure (eBook)
The Ancients have given Bear Running Wolf one month to save the woman he loves, his own lifeline, and the worlds of the Valdier, Sarafin, and Curizan.
They believe they have set him an impossible task.
Bear intends to prove them wrong.
Aikaterina is an Ancient, one of the original beings born with the universe itself. For eons, she has given pieces of herself to the creation and protection of the worlds and beings she has come to love. But even an Ancient can be weakened. Even a golden goddess can fall.
And not all Ancients believe she should be saved.
Some see her compassion as interference. Some would condemn her for caring too much. Now they have their chance to destroy one of their own by demanding the impossible: find a being who can love Aikaterina for who she is without her powers—and awaken her before the sands of time run out.
Bear is only human.
He cannot command stars, bend time, or battle the universe with immortal power.
But he can love.
He can stand when others expect him to kneel. He can fight for the woman who has become his heart. And he can show the Ancients that humans possess a power far greater than they have ever understood—the power not only to wake a golden goddess, but to love her.
Even if it means facing forces no mortal was ever meant to survive.
