The Dragon and the Sparrow Part 2

by Kyle West

Dragomir Valdrik has acquired the Wizard class and slain a dragon, but he will soon discover that raw power is meaningless without the magical knowledge to wield it effectively.

He sets his sights on selling his loot and gaining the wisdom necessary to carve his own arcane path to power. He seeks knowledge in the Grand Athenaeum, allies among fellow Wizards, and inclusion in the prestigious Arcaneum Tower, Karadesh's exclusive academy for Wizards.

What he doesn't realize is that slaying the dragon may have been the easy part. Societal structures keep outsiders like him firmly in their place, meaning that if he is determined to access forbidden knowledge, he must make sacrifices and think creatively, no matter the cost.

A chance for apprenticeship may provide the key to advancement, but even this may not be enough. After signing on for an expedition to explore a mysterious Vault, Dragomir will learn that the greatest dangers are not always the monsters lurking in the dark...
