The second book of The Overlords series is The Talisman of Unification. Harrison and his friends have discovered a seemingly insignificant leather-bound scripture. Swinkle examines the book and finds that its text is magically encrypted. Sensing that there is a deeper meaning to him finding the manuscript, the young cleric convinces his friends to employ the services of a mage to help decipher the elusive writings. When they do this, the group discovers that uncovering the Treasure of the Land is only the first step of a much larger quest. The authors of the manuscript instruct the group to search for three precious gems, an ancient artifact, and to fill a canister with the blood of an evil red dragon. Only after completing these steps will they be able to open the gateway that will lead them to more understanding of the powers they now possess. Unbeknownst to the adventurers, Troy Harkin, King Holleris’s General-at-Arms, is dispatched to search for the taken manuscript. He, along with his advisor, Teleios, and their platoon of soldiers scour the land for the missing book. Along the way this new group of adversaries teams with Lord Nigel Hammer – yes, he’s back! – the ruthless governor of Concur, and his contingent of men as they try and hunt down Harrison and his friends. And no quest would be complete without the ever-growing Scynthian civilization, a revelation that is quickly becoming a reality. The stage is set for new battles and confrontations, a quest to find intricate treasures throughout the land, a deeper understanding of the powers they possess, revelations of Scynthian uprisings, and a battle with Dracus, a terrifying dragon of fire.
