What
if you discovered there was time before time began? What if everything
you thought was true, was not? What if there was a beginning before, “In
the beginning”? What if another story was unfolding within our time? A story steeped in loss, love, betrayal, and secrets?
On
her twenty-third celebrated birthday, Lilith arrived in Scotland,
following clues she had secretly collected about her past. Little did
she know that her arrival at the Rosslyn Chapel would reignite one of
the oldest wars of all time- The Fall. Sides will be chosen, lives will
be lost, and the secret kept all this time by the Illuminati will be
exposed.
Welcome
to Eden. The place where magic was born, trees are gateways to other
realms, and Angels aren’t what you think they are. Meet Lilith. A young
woman with an incredible story; one she isn’t supposed to know, much
less tell. Meet Sam. A man with an unknown past and powers that rival
Lilith’s.
“Did you sense the pain from within the child?” Declan asked.
“It was greater than anything I have ever experienced. What was done to her is unforgivable. Her strength in not giving into the Shade is unfathomable. Normally, I would say the child has much to learn, but in this case, I fear we have much to learn from her.” Alaric answered with reverence.
Turning toward the pool Declan responded, “Emzara will know what to do. I will call for her as well.”
Looking into the water, he saw the fair-skinned child lying at Adela’s feet, her long copper locks strewn across a perfectly round face. Declan, the great black unicorn, whispered, “Happy birthday, little one. We will find out who or what has awoken you. You will be safe. No harm shall befall you. This is my solemn vow.”
“It is time dear friend.” A voice shook him from his thoughts.
The Dragon and Unicorn Knights cast spell after spell into the pool. Runes in ancient languages long since forgotten began to glow on her skin weaving a glowing web of magic around the sleeping girl. A faint orange light caught the Unicorn Knight’s eye. Amongst the glowing runes on her body, a faint symbol appeared on her wrist. Adela watched as the sleeping girl accepted the magic from the knights -- and strengthened it.
“She bears the mark of the Great Sacrifice. The myths are true. I knew she someone important when she came to the cave, but never in all these millennia did I think she was the Taken.” The Knights looked at one another as the reality of who the young girl’s identity became clear.

B.
L. Marsh has been writing and telling stories her entire life. She is a
music teacher, guest lecturer and runs Master Classes. Her academic
research is focused on the L’homme arme tradition, the Dead Sea Scrolls,
chant transmission in the Medieval and Renaissance, and Gnostic and
Kabbalah history. Her passion for spirituality, mythology and
developing her relationship with God are parts of her Rule of Life. In
her reading of the Bible and other extra-biblical texts however, she
began to daydream about the characters, about how life was back then,
and how cool it would have been to walk in the Garden with God. Her
stories weave a new mythology revolving around Genesis.
When
she is not writing or teaching, she spends her days hanging out with
five of the coolest boys on the planet and at night can be found doing
completely ridiculous things like reading Joseph Campbell and Jane
Austin and watching the same 3 movies on TV.
