Book IV

Dragons, mermaids, maze

Three tasks for three champions

A fourth enters in

The flaming goblet

led the boy to the darkness

The Dark Lord returns

Book V

Children train for war

Order fights against shadows

Prophecy is told

An angry young boy

pays the price for rash action

A loved one is lost

Book VI

Murder brings to light

the truth about a carved soul

A deathless villain

Book VII

Locket, cup, crown, snake

But a hidden shard remains

The boy must die too.

The boy is dead, but

magic provides a loophole

Back to fight the war

Dueling wands decide

the fate of magic’s future

Heroes never fail
