The Guardian of Secrets: Chosen ones

Ten nations. Ten objects, and pairs for them. One of the objects has woken up.
Before stories, there was only the silence of the flow of time, and before nations, there was a promise that nothing would be forgotten.
Ailo, Azhrin’s youngster, does not yet know his real name in a story that began long before he was born. But when he enters his coming-of-age ritual and finds the ancient compass, a journey begins that breaks the silence, and the peoples who have always been silent are forced to act.
The sea is no longer calm. The fragments move. And something that once fell apart to protect the world is now beginning to call together those who are chosen without knowing the secret.
The Guardian of Secrets - The Chosen is an enchanting, poetic, and deeply fantastic opening to a two-part series that explores the power of memory, identity, and asks what happens when silence stops listening.
