This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.What if the prison you guarded held a being of pure annihilation? And what if the conspiracy to free it was tied to the murder of your own family?For four centuries, Kaelen has served as the last Warden of Aethelgard, a cosmic prison for a reality-ending entity known as the Telos. His quiet duty is shattered by a cryptic message revealing that his family's death was no accident, but a calculated sacrifice in a generations-old plot to unleash oblivion.To unravel this web of deceit, Kaelen must wield his formidable powers of Chronomancy, the art of manipulating time, and Cognitomancy, the power to explore and influence minds. But he's not alone. His greatest, and most opinionated, ally is Virellian-a sarcastic, sentient, and ancient book of arcane knowledge that offers as many insults as it does insights.From the high-stakes political intrigue of a city rotting from within to battles against cosmic horrors that defy reality, The Warden of Aethelgard is a gripping blend of dark humor, high fantasy, and existential dread. Can one elf, armed with a sword, time-bending magic, and a wisecracking book, expose a conspiracy centuries in the making and prevent the unraveling of existence itself? Written through an innovative partnership - Burian / Artificial Intelligence
