Niele Aka-No Ikrah T’Sire

translation ~ Niele’s Eclipse Moon Born

---

Inspired by the background of truth about Ikrah of Falshire, daughter of the Dragon Emperor Dregin of the Eight Kingdoms. She was born under the eclipse of the moon in the heart of Autumn. Conditioned as his continuing legacy, she carries his Wind Element in her limited innate ability to summon everything in the sky to her will. When you read Zandria Reclaim, you will understand her significance to his Imperial Majesty, but a mystery remains behind his reticence at acknowledging her.

I had written her into my trilogy from conception in Book One all the way into Book Three (work in progress). She became an integral part of the main plot over time, though initially I had intended for the Four Celestials to be the main characters of the whole saga. Somehow or other, every time I wrote a chapter, I had to redraft and redraft and tweak here, tweak there, and change, then the story took on a life of its own in different directions. Thus, the finished products came to be as they are in The Mage Emperor Dregin (Book One) and Zandria Reclaim (Book Two).
