Griffin’s Play

Thirty-five years after King Hugh Huttington reclaimed Hallesthorpe atop his legendary griffin Matara, the realm stands at a turning point. As an impending anniversary and a royal visit draw near, a kingdom awaits its next ruler.
Yet, as the king prepares to step down, turmoil strikes. Prince Leon, who prefers kindness to council chambers, is suddenly thrust toward a destiny he never sought. Amidst secret allegiances, past trauma, and rising threats, the young prince must navigate the treacherous waters of power, responsibility, and loss.
From palace corridors to the high seas, old wounds resurface and hidden choices will decide the fate of all.
As secrets unravel and alliances shatter, who will hold the kingdom together?
