![]() ![]() Someone else has picked up the project of destroying enclaves in my stead, and probably everyone we saved is about to get killed in the brewing enclave war on the horizon. Did it work? As the book blurb can attest, sorta. " Ha, only joking! Actually it's gone all wrong. Instead, it split the Scholomance dimension off this plane, and hopefully all the demons with it. El released her power and a spell that could crack the Earth if she chose to. The Golden Enclaves starts out just as we left off, with El and company having fought a host of maleficaria hell-bent on their destruction. That is, if she chooses to go down that path, which is the crux of the story and her nagging fear. ![]() To quote her namesake the original Galadriel, "Instead of a Dark Lord, you would have a queen, not dark but beautiful and terrible as the dawn! Tempestuous as the sea, and stronger than the foundations of the Earth! All shall love me and despair!" El, could be a dark sorcerous who can make mountains bow before her, and all mothers of the world cry out in weeping anguish. Because while the story has solid side characters, especially in The Golden Enclaves, the journey is that of Galadriel, or El as she likes to be called. What started as a run-of-the-mill dark academia story became a gripping grimdark with a morally gray heroine that you may not like, but you can certainly get behind. The Golden Enclaves and the entire Scholomance series have been a long dark road full of twists and turns. ![]()
