A prologue to the upcoming three-part novel, A World I Have Never Seen.

Cobra’s Hood is a city of smoke and lies. Power is the language of its people, and honesty is hard to find. Zhaekota, a junior reporter with The Hood Informant believes his purpose is guiding others through the haze of the capital with the fire in his heart and hands. But when he is offered a chance not only to guide the people, but to lead them, he finds himself slipping down a path towards ultimate, endless control. Will he remain true to himself and those he loves, or will he give in to the temptation sparked in the whispers flowing from Telgora’s leaders? Even he may not know until it is too late.
