Return of the Elves — D.J. Zangari; R.J. Zangari

An ancient elven metropolis was liberated by Iltar in his search for the Amulet of Draconic Control. His apprentice, Balden the half-elf, decided to forsake the quest for the Amulet and remain in his ancestral home to restore it to its former majesty. This task, however, will prove to be daunting, as Balden must confront those tainted by bigotry and consumed with greed to bring his people home. Return of the Elves is the third short story tied to the epic fantasy series, Tales of the Amulet. Tales of the Amulet: Several millennia ago a war raged between the factions of dragonkind. With their world ravaged, the Kaldean Alliance forged the Amulet of Draconic Control and the Tethering Stone, and banished their foes other realms, saving Kalda from utter destruction. Fearing the power of the Amulet, the survivors secreted it away. But now knowledge of the Amulet has resurfaced-and in the wrong hands, war could erupt anew.
