Adventure. Exploration of the human condition. All woven into a grand tapestry....

In this allegory, join Talon Forge on his youthful quest for a brighter destiny. Brutal work at the forges and a dogmatic culture are behind him. The world is at his disposal. Unfortunately, he finds rejection, suffering, and darkness awaiting him. The Xandrian estate is the first place he finds that offers hope and light. But also a cross. He detests this and is easily persuaded by Lumen, who is crossing the Xandrian estate, to travel with him to an island called Prospect.

To get to it, they must go to a harbor called Wide Gate, sail the Sea of Delusion and dock at the Port of Inflamed Imagination. There is light and happiness in abundance as the voyage begins. All is luxury and decadence. But Talon can't fit in. And he discovers an undercurrent of hostility despite all the accomodations. After serving time in the oar room and eventually being evicted from the ship on a raft, will he get to Prospect somehow? If so, will he finally find his utopia, or just more putrid darkness beneath a shiny surface?

Forged Destiny is a thought provoking and captivating allegory containing timeless truths and timely insights. Fans of John Bunyan's allegories would enjoy this tale!
