The Sane Vessel by Creed Parker
Blurb:
In a nation ruled by mercenaries, power comes at the price of your sanity or humanity, or both.
Kalnen is a nation forged with blood and controlled with unstable elemental magic in the form of Vessels; a twisted use of innocent bodies.
Ezlos was a soldier, then a hero for just a breath, but he now subsists under a mountain, torturing unfortunate Obarans to turn them into Vessels for the mercenary houses.
Orun and Zarna are Vessels, the only ones not in chains. Capable of immense destruction at the cost of their sanity. They have managed to gain their freedom, but now must choose their path in a nation that is not their own and would rather use them as living bombs.
The long-lasting peace between the mercenary houses is rotting, their oaths strained, they will soon use Vessels to incinerate their countrymen. Ezlos, Orun, and Zarna travel to the northern Greatlands, each with a part to play in the coming civil war.
Will they stop it or ensure fire, lightning, and blood are spilled?

Author Bio:
A big fan of Narnia and creative writing as a kid who drifted away from reading for a number of years. Rediscovered my love for fantasy when I picked up Magician by Feist on a whim when I was snowed in one day. Then rediscovered a love for writing while jobless after moving to the other side of the world. Still on that other side, currently based in London.
