The Eldest Treasure: A World of Lumeria Story

by Thomas Anthony Lay

Armed with enough blind enthusiasm to make up for his distinct lack of skill, Masha’s thirst for adventure takes him to the thirteen seas, determined to find the mythical Eldest Treasure.

Initially sailing solo, Masha’s innocent charm draws wayward companions to him, forming bonds of trust that not even a silent, looming threat should be able to break. From seeking mermaids to scuffling with sea beasts, their journey never dulls.

With sails at full mast and the wind at their backs, what could possibly stand in their way? The Pirate Lords? The Merchant's Guild? The Iron Sails? Nah! Adventure awaits!
