The Stoneblood:
Journey to the Heart of the Mountain
Join Ying on a Journey to Save Their Clan…
Every few years, a child of the Mountain Clan is born with special abilities. Their connection with the mountain is so deep, they can reach out and move the stones of the mountain’s surface as if they were a part of their own bodies. These “stonebloods,” as they’ve come to be called, wield a great power.
Some learn to use this power as a weapon, reshaping the mountain itself into a deadly ally in combat. These guardian stonebloods stand watch over the maintain villages as their stern protectors, fending off wild beasts and Valley Tribe marauders.
Those who don’t embrace a life of fighting are architect stonebloods. They focus on the betterment of their villages, building homes and reaching deep into the mountain to harvest valuable metals and gems.
Ying happily works the mines as an architect stoneblood. But when all the guardian stonebloods go missing and the Valley Tribes are attacking, she must make her way to the heart of the mountain to awaken the great guardian.
“When I realized that the second heartbeat I could feel was the mountain, that’s when I knew I had the gift.”
— Ying, Stoneblood
