As if in response, a soft voice abruptly invaded my thoughts, sounding defeated and weakened.
I’ve returned, my host. Freedom wasn’t what I thought it would be. So much pain and suffering in the world, and I fear more is yet to come. You will need me in the upcoming years. I have foreseen great devastation, and you stand at the forefront of it all. Your parents and I await your presence in the Armory whenever you are ready. I have granted them temporary access thanks to the Horseman’s… encouragement. You will need training in your gift. Only we can teach you to become The Maker.
Then the voice trailed off. I shivered. My parents resided in the Armory with Hope…no, Pandora? Death had
encouraged
Pandora to grant them access?
Then another thought hit me.
Pandora hadn’t elaborated if I was at the forefront of the impending storm because I was
fighting
it…
Or
causing
it…
I wandered back to bed, very, very concerned about both my new powers and the role I would play in the days to come.

About Shayne
Shayne is the guy itching for confrontation, oozing testosterone from more pores than the average male has room for. He is a published author of fiction novels and currently makes a living in the commercial lending realm for a nationally known bank in the Midwest. He hails from Denver, but has survived from New York City, to Miami, to Los Angeles, to Chicago, and even across the pond in London, before finally settling in Missouri where he not-so-secretly works on the global domination plan he intends to achieve by his mid-thirties.
He holds two high-ranking black belts in the martial arts, loves coffee, drinks adrenaline before going to bed, and wishes he could share a glass of wine with Alexander the Great, Achilles, and Thomas Jefferson… at the same time. He dresses like the world is his red carpet, and is the father of a bearded baby man-ling with his wife, the Duchess of Russia. He is currently hard at work on the third installment of the Temple Chronicles, and hopes that you enjoyed reading Nate’s Story as much as he enjoyed writing it.

Dedication
Dedicated to the most stunning creature I have ever encountered... Olesya, my wife. Not to mention my bearded little manling, Wyatt, and the tiny princess I get to meet in a few months, Mila. To the whole crew of godlings at Chateau Defiance - yes, my home has an entirely disproportionate nickname - this one's for you…
Acknowledgments
Many were instrumental in bringing this story to life. Too many to name, but I will give it the ol’ college try. First, I would like to thank my beta-readers, those individuals who spent hours of their time to read, and re-read, and re-re-read Nate’s story: Tyler Abma and Ryan Fletcher.
Guido Henkel and Lieu Pham, who were — once again — the virtuosos behind the cover design, as well as incorporating the final touches on the formatting which helped transform the document into the digital world. Check them out at

I would also like to thank you, the reader. I hope you enjoy reading

And last, but not least, I would like to thank my family — the whole gang, both at home and in Brooklyn — as none of this would have been possible without your love, support, cold hard cash, and coffee…
