EDIT 2: Sorry, I am spamming you again, just to let you know of a change in the deadline. ^^;  It seems it arrange more people to have a little bit more time for the contest so I am moving the deadline on february 15th, I hope you don't mind, guys. :3

Désolée si je vous spamme un peu en ce moment, mais il y a un petit changement dans la deadline. Comme il y avait pas mal de gens qui avaient besoin d'un petit peu plus de temps pour réaliser leur entrée de concours, j'ai déplacé la deadline au 15 février. J'espère que ça ne vous pose pas trop de problème. ^^

EDIT : with english translation of each backcover below, I hope ti will make any sense, I am not very used to translation. If you see any mistake, please tell me! :meow:

:shamrock: Nym-Bruyn :shamrock:  :

This is the setting of Weëna story : a huge empire more or less inspired by roman or chinese empires. For the culture, the architecture, the fashion, I took my inspiration from arab, indian, central and south east asia civilisations.

:shamrock: The story of  Weëna :shamrock: :
As Weëna has been translated only in a couple of languages only, Here is a sum up of each book.
:fish::fish:** Translation in progress** :fish::fish:

The first rulers of the Kingdom of Nym-Bruyn had  four children:
Skoor, the firstborn founded a dominating dynasty , " the Master Branch ".
Noor, "the unloved ", left the kingdom. His mixed blood descendants became " invisible branch" or "the lost branch". One of this descendant is Weëna.
Tengoor, the youngest son, hated his brothers, ran away with his younger sister and sired a child with her. Since, their descendants are cursed to commit incest forever. This part of the royal family is called " the death branch ".
The Master Branch is at the head of the kingdom, but there is a threat of barbarian invasion...

*Atavism
In the kingdom of Nym-Bruyn, the time of decline approaches. Morckoor, the heir of a disgraced line of the royal family step out of the shadow and prepare his revolt. A chieftain daughter, young Weëna is rejected by her own people because of a physical difference. She lives far away from the turmoil of the world and secretly loves Gwylym, the village's shepherd and her only friend. One day, a stranger tells them that their fate will be mingled to events that will shake the peace of the kingdom.

*Trial
Prisonner in the tower of Morckoor's mentor, the wizard Haggral, Weëna meet a young slave, Opéra. Together, the two unfortunate girls will try to escape from the influence of Morckoor who tries to seize the power through a forced marriage. In the meantime, Gwylym and Miureal ( Weëna's nanny ) desperately try to research Weëna. But the kingdom of Nym-Bruyn is huge and many trials await them.

*Resurgence
To escape from Morckoor who sees in Weëna, the only way to grab the power, she and Opéra sail as stowaways across the sea to reach the Convent of Ice, where no man is allowed to enter. In the meantime, the curse of the death branch continue it silent work of desctruction. Olja, Morckoor's sister, gives birth to the last heir of the cursed family, a monstrous being who's fate is to serve very ancient and mysterious intentions.

*Union
Protected inside the walls of the convent of the Ice Nuns, Weëna  thinks she escaped the vindication of Morckoor for a while. But the cursed prince, stubborn, will find an ally in Sister Keëtha, one of the high rnaked nuns. Weëna has to face an ultimatum : embrace the faith of the convent or leave it forever at her own risk. Unaware of Sister Keëtha's duplicity, Weëna steps into a trap.

*Battle
Weëna and Opéra managed to ran away from the convent of the Ice Sisters and the trap set up by Morckoor and Sister Keëtha. In hope of losing Morckoor definitively , the two girls decided to sail to Nym-Bryun, the captial. But the cursed prince won't renounce to marry Weëna. In the meantime, Gwylym, promoted as a general of the imperial army sees his dream coming true : becoming a great warrior...

*Travel
As Weëna and Opéra try to reach Nym-Bruyn, the prince Morckoor, their enemy, struggle against a parasite that slowly eats him, in the mind and body. During his agony, he discovers the origin of that disease: the plant that serves as his right arm. The last heir of the dead branch realize the price to pay for his ambition... But it's difficult to whip away with the back of a hand ancient traditions and  spells.

*Destination
As he wakes up, the prince Morckoor finds himself hands and feet tied while Weëna recognize Gwylym. But their happy reunion gets bitter when the young shepherd announce he will deliver his prisonner to the authorities. Weëna implores Gwylym and he gives up. It's as allies that Weëna, Morckoor and Gwylym travel to Nym-Bruyn, the capital of the empire and to their fate.
