Blood Crest: So the Journey Begins Victoria N. Vance

Zorovana is an elf from Valasadon-a city ruled by evil Blood Guardians. For many years, Zorovana's family has sought to destroy the Blood Crest Dagger imprisoned inside a great temple, for it holds the power to kill every living being in the universe. Zorovana is her family's last hope. She must find and destroy the dagger, but she cannot do it alone. As she embarks on a journey to Armagon to find the only one who can help her-her long-time friend Kaithar-Zorovana realizes that she is the only elf who has ever escaped from Valasadon. Kaithar is convinced that the journey to destroy the dagger will put both elves in extreme danger. But Zorovana is relentless and determined; after she finally persuades Kaithar to accompany her, they leave on a mission that has the potential to eliminate the Blood Guardians and bring back control of the cities to its citizens. As the elves begin their long journey to the sanctum high in the mountains, they travel through forests full of trolls and hidden goblin cities-and unknowingly place themselves into the deathly grip of the Blood Guardians, who will stop at nothing to protect their powerful weapon.
