Sacrifice, hard choices, courage. Overcoming anxiety, Bea forges ahead to uncover the mystery of their enemy, Kest, & to ultimately face him. With her found family of sorts, victory is close… but as understanding dawns, perhaps they are not the heroes they thought they’d be. Which is why inordinately delightful works like Lightfall (Book 1): The Girl and the Galdurian by Tim Probert are such a joyous thing to have in our world.

Cad is a marvelous hero, mowing down villains with his sword, and devoting himself to saving others. He is part frog, part giant, and full of myth and wonder. Bea is a great contrast with him. She worries a lot, the darkness spreading around her limbs and head, almost carrying her away at times. But she is also a hero, jumping in when she is needed, bravely fighting off foes and having cold feet (literally) along the way. So vividly expressed are his depictions of the various landscapes and peoples of Irpa, good and bad, that you fall straight into the magical world he has created. Bea, who has never been on an adventure before, is accompanied by a rather smiley, sword-wielding Galdurian named Cad. He too is on a quest to find his people who deserted him decades earlier. Together their fate is bound as they seek to save the world and unravel a long-buried mystery.

Cabal Shadow Legion enemies use Pyramid technology to shield themselves in battle. Described by Bungie as the "most scary unit [players] have ever fought", Tormentors use giant scythes in battle and can suppress Guardian ability and super usage and even instantly kill Guardians by grabbing them at close range. [5] The land of Irpa has some fearsome reality of its own it must be said, with evil creatures known as Tikarri roaming around to kill off the tenuous light that keeps this sprawling kingdom well-lit and buoyantly alive, but it is also home to characters like Beatrice aka Bea and Cadwallader, the Galdurian of the title, a frog-like person of endless enthusiasm and hopefulness who has endured some pretty terrible things but lived to smile about it anyway.
