The Goatherd and the King
Martian Prophecies Von: Julie Steimle
The son of a city lord in the golden age of Arras, Zeldar Tarrn was the center of Knarr high society scandal as the love child from his father’s first marriage—the result of an illicit love affair with a woman from a society of people set apart from their own aristocratic caste. Paparazzi sought out Zeldar, the young half-blood, to catch pictures of the otherwise charming and talented young lord, a constant reminder that he was a freak of nature. Yet who would know that Zeldar’s destiny lay beyond dealing with embarrassing camera shots, scheming matchmakers, and the occasional social snub?
With a penchant for trouble, Zeldar finds himself the center of more scandal when he chooses to attend Red Hall, a lower-class university, starting a chain reaction of events that alters his life forever. Dealing with rejection, hostility, and forced to fight to keep his place in a society that does not want anything to do with a half-blood, Zeldar ends up in an arranged marriage with one of Knarr’s most eligible ladies of business, to set his reputation back on track. Adverse to it at first, Zeldar soon changes his mind upon meeting his fiancée in person, so overtaken by his bride’s charms that he decides to do whatever is necessary to win her heart, even if it means leaving behind his former ideals.
But Zeldar is unable to remain out of trouble for long. Haunted by nightmares of the destruction of Arras, his college friends also inform him of a political crisis that could strip every landless citizen of their rights to a vote, begging him to be their champion by taking up his inherited seat in the Knarr Parliament to speak for them. Zeldar has a choice to make—should he remain silent to keep his inheritance, or speak out against all the things that have condemned his very existence yet lose even the woman he loves?
The story of Zeldar Tarrn, the famous ancestor of Zormna Clendar and Jafarr Zeldar.
