This novella is the first in this High fantasy series for teens and young adults. This series of novellas follows a young man from the Swedish countryside, and his adventures within the realm of magic.
Jake Lundberg is no stranger to night terrors. But when his dreams take a sinister turn, plunging him into a shadow realm stalked by a faceless evil, he realizes his visions are far more than just bad dreams. Seeking answers, Jake and his uncle James escape through an enchanted portal ring, only to find themselves stranded atop a treacherous mountain pass guarded by an angry griffin.

Their only hope is to reach the distant Academy of Gemstone Magic, where Jake has been accepted to study his newly discovered magical abilities. But surviving the journey will require Jake to awaken powers he never knew he possessed. As the line between dreams and reality begins to blur, malevolent forces track Jake's every move, determined to harness his untapped gifts for their own dark ends.

At the crossroads between worlds, Jake undertakes a harrowing quest to unravel the meaning behind his terrifying dreams and reach the Academy. Are his night terrors a warning of dangers to come or an omen of his untapped potential? With shadowy assassins on his trail and a mysterious figure intent on aiding his journey, Jake must look within himself to find the courage and power to withstand the coming storm.
