Tales of Bastunia: Training Grounds (Unfound Tales of Bastunia) - 5572

About "Training Grounds" Being a beastborn is no joke. Not only has Joan’s mind been invaded by the infant-god, but every time her Calling gets hurt, she shares in the pain. Her father, Bastunia’s most heroic beastborn turned self-appointed mentor, is determined to forge Joan and Monkey’s connection into something special. But before progress can be made, Joan and James must make amends. Overcoming a lifetime of troubled history will not prove easy. So begins a battle of wills that puts Artie in a precarious position. Can they settle their differences before the boy becomes collateral damage? About the Tales of Bastunia series: For all of history, the god of Bastunia has bestowed upon the people a gift: a spiritual beast-companion that helps them on their life’s Path. In the span of a couple hundred years, they have turned from barbarians into high society. But when the god vanishes, leaving people to find their own way, their civilized world begins to fall apart. First there was Discovery, a period of history that emerged out of an unknown past. Time began here with the first scrawlings of the Record. Next, a gifted god with his deific ingenuities and the help of a few chosen Bastunians, created Order. It was a time of enlightenment, achievement, and great expansion. The people were certain that Order was an epoch that would never end. But, the darkness of the cosmos hid chaos-spawn whose lives were devoted to destruction. Order lasted barely one hundred years. At the eve of the second century, the god’s impressive creation began to show cracks. It was an era marked by apparent neglect, by abandonment, by turmoil, and it was aptly named the Crumble. Now the god has been completely missing for sixteen years, and Bastunia is well into the modern era: the Fall. But things are about to change in a big way. Bastunia, after an exhausting streak of setbacks, is about to get a win that could change their fortune. Or it might accelerate them toward extinction…
