《The Trials of the Lion》Trials of the Lion: Fiction Update
Advertisement
Greetings! I'm going to keep this very short. I published The Trials of the Lion on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited on August 17th, 2022. During that process, Amazon briefly had exclusivity to 90% of the Trials content, and I had to remove it from Royal Road. I've regretted that since it happened and was eagerly awaiting the day I could migrate the chapters back here. My success has been here on RR, and my readers mean a lot more to me than the piddly few cents I was making through KU. Those of you who comment, send me messages, and leave reviews brighten my days and broaden my horizons.
Well, it's November 14th baby, and today's the day! Starting now, all of The Trials of the Lion content is restored to RoyalRoad, and the mainline stories will never go away again. This is a mistake I made, and not one I plan to repeat. The Kindle Unlimited process wasn't what I hoped it would be anyway, and to be honest, seems like a raw deal for readers. That brings back almost 300 pages of content, across more than 130,000 words. And we're just getting warmed up, readers. I'm sitting on another 80,000 words that I am in the process of actively editing to refine it into the best sword and sorcery content on the platform. In particular, the Savage Crown saga, which composes (at current) five separate arcs, has been an absolute blast to bring together, and I'm getting more ideas every week. Buried in there is another novella that explores the nature of death and destiny, an Arthurian legend, and a pretty wild one that establishes the direction we're going long-term. And it's suitable bleak.
To celebrate the return of the Lion to RoyalRoad, his true home, I'm publishing a bonus chapter of the new arc, "A Chain of Crowns," this morning. Hell yeah! Thanks for sticking with The Trials.
Stay fierce!

Four strangers are drawn together by a spell from a deitic chalice. One is a wizard, gifted but lonely and in need of adventure and companionship. Another a half-elven sorceress who is desperately searching for her siblings. The third is a giant, cast out from his home and needing guidance in the country he has landed in. And the last, an assassin whose advantages are being stripped from him one at a time. Despite their initial reluctance, the four soon come to realize that they need each other in order to survive, for the chalice holds secrets that need to be discovered and obeyed. *Chapters are published Mondays and Thursdays at midnight on my website, www.forestgreenwriting.com, and here in a more mercurial fashion, though you will always get at least two chapters per week.*

Among historical figures such as Al-Mansur, and the Sultana Subh or Aurora, using her Latin name, mingle fictional characters interwoven with historical facts, that will make you go through loves, betrayals, emotions, and the dangers of Muslim splendor of time during the Islamic conquest of Hispania in century X. Two plots run in parallel; the first involving the attempt to rescue the power to Hisham II, overshadowed by Al-Mansur ambition and the second in the intricacies of the famous Al-Zahara Palace Library, when the discovery of a manuscript of the Koran can change the destiny of Islam and of its faithful. The Sierra de Guadarrama is a mountain range of Central System (mountain range of the center of the Iberian Peninsula) and was south of this chain of mountains that stood the Muslims domains based in Cordoba. As the Wattpad does not allow automatic inclusion of footnotes, I have informed at the end of each chapter the explanation of a typical ancient expression or personage that can generate doubts. Check the end of each chapter to see if your doubt is explained there.Classified as an adult, according to WattPad rules, because it involves one sex scene, not described in an explicit way, and contains episodes of violence. It does not contain pornography. Cover art by Camila Rodrigues (https://www.wattpad.com/user/CapistaCamila)
