Deniar and the Power Stone Legacy

It shouldn't have been this complicated. Find the cave, get a power stone, return home. That was the mission Deniar himself had chosen for his choma--the journey he had to make, now that he'd reached the age of manhood. He'd known it wouldn't be easy: there were mountains, wild animals, and other obstacles. But he had a special broadsword. He had his strange powers, which allowed him to harness the energies of Kabora's magenta sun. He had Marnu, his leopard-like pet. But there was an army of enemies who also wanted the power stones. But Deniar had allies. Allies he really didn't want. But he needed them. It was complicated.
