Toukan: The First Falling (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781761242540)

In the world of Alard, every human is born with Reiki - a living energy that can be trained into incredible strength. But only a rare few ever awaken its true power, and those few shaped history.

A century ago, the monster known as the Mutotsu was sealed away by Ujitaka Toukan, but not before it released four glass plates that can break the seal and bring it back. Now the seal is weakening, and twisted beings called Mutahawls-humans transformed by Dark Reiki-are spreading through the land, hunting the plates to revive the creature.

To protect Alard, the four Royal Clans stand united:

- Toukan - masters of wind

- Akaryu - wielders of fire

- Laitonn - controllers of lightning

- Abahare - guardians of water

Their ruler, Yuuta Toukan, is the strongest Reiki warrior alive. But even he senses the coming danger. Dark forces are rising again, secrets from the past are resurfacing, and the century-old seal is close to breaking.

As the Mutahawls grow stronger and the plates draw nearer to being reunited, every clan, every warrior, and every life in Alard will be caught in the turning of fate.

Epic, fast-paced, and filled with power, Toukan: The First Falling begins a sweeping fantasy saga where ancient forces awaken, clans collide, and the battle for Alard's future begins.

The fall of one century marks the rise of another.

The next war is already on its way.
