Before the Legend

Prince Troy of Aegea has always clung to the comforting words of his island’s nursery rhymes—songs that promise safety, joy, and happily-ever-afters. But when a haunting dream of his parents’ death collides with a devastating quake, Troy’s world shatters. Separated from his family, he and his brothers must embark on a perilous trek across the island.

As Troy races against time to reunite with his parents, he discovers that legends aren’t always what they seem. Each step forces him to confront truths about love, honesty, and loss—and to decide whether courage can rewrite fate before his worst nightmare becomes reality.
