The Aegis Saga

A blight is consuming the world while humans fight each other over the remnants. The turans — a people whose ancestors abandoned the world to travel between stars — watch from their mountain plateaus as wild magic returns to fill the vacuum the Ancients left behind. The remaining turans must choose: fight the blight, follow their ancestors into the stars, or be destroyed where they stand. Their fate depends on the life of a single human child. A 280,000-word interactive fantasy novel by Charles Parkes, text-only, with choices that matter throughout.
