The Complete Saga
Book Collection
Known as the golden age of civilization, the Age of Might centers on the rise of the Empire of Istar, which becomes the dominant political and religious power in the world. Initially a force for justice, the Kingpriests of Istar grow increasingly tyrannical, seeking to purge the world of evil by any means. This hubris leads to a divine reckoning: the gods send a fiery mountain crashing into the capital of Istar, reshaping the world in what becomes known as the Cataclysm. With that single act, the age of empire ends, and Krynn is cast into darkness and despair.
The surprising history of Balif has finally come to light...
The Journeyman is charged to use the ancient Anvil of Time to travel back along the river of time and find the lost stories that fell between the pages of the history books.
One of the most intriguing figures in Dragonlance(R) is that of Balif, the elven general who was an intimate of Silvanos, the first Speaker of the Stars. Balif founded the city of Balifor, granted the kender a homeland, was an advocate for the wizard Vedvedsica, lived under a curse, was altered by the Graygem--but no one elf could do all those things. Or could he?
