Crystal Trilogy – Part One: Castle of Lumania – Lord of Lumania

In a world fractured by ancient crystal magic, three races once reigned: Humans, Elves, and Vampires. Each held a sacred crystal — a relic of unspeakable power, capable of summoning divine spirits or rewriting fate itself. Centuries ago, the Vampire King Kalidor led a failed war and was cast into the abyss of eternal torment. His body perished… but his soul endured. Now, after hundreds of years, Kalidor returns — not as a man, but as a wandering spirit, drawn back to his ruined castle by the last remnants of the Vampire Crystal he once bound to his blood. To reclaim his throne, Kalidor must recover his body piece by piece, solving arcane riddles, facing spectral guardians, and surviving the very horrors he once commanded. But the deeper he descends into the castle’s secrets, the more he begins to forget who he truly was. He gains his strength… but loses his identity. With each limb regained, with each echo of memory restored, the question grows louder: What use is a body… when the name behind it is lost? Castle of Lumania: Lord of Lumania is the first volume of the Crystal Trilogy, a gothic epic of undead kings, forgotten wars, and the price of resurrection.
