Winds of Amicita

Once every century for the last five-hundred years, a brilliant curtain of light called The Luce blazes a path across the ocean to Amicita, an island shrouded in mystery. Rumored to be rich in natural resources and ancient artifacts, Amicita has caught interest from rest of the world. With the advent of another Luce just around the corner, Landree sees this as an opportunity to escape her life as an inn-keeper's daughter. Craving for adventure, she and her friends sign up for an expedition to the island. In a stroke of luck, Landree and five other students in the same village were selected, including a brooding, lone wolf named Nicholas, who is fixated on a myth that Amicita holds gemstones that grant elemental powers. He also warns that Amicita is hidden away from the rest of the world for a reason. After a storm maroons Landree and her friends on the island, everyone shifts their focus from exploration to survival. They race against time to gather enough supplies to sail home before The Luce, their only way to navigate home safely, vanishes when the two moons eclipse. As Landree and her friends stumble deeper into the wilderness, myth becomes reality when they awaken the powers within gemstones; however, they soon discover that the powers had been activated for a reason. Earthquakes worsen. People vanish one by one. Can Landree unravel the mystery of Amicita before it's too late?
