Ok, well a few years ago I read a book trilogy and I can’t remember the name of the series. The series is about magic. There are four major races in the book, each with a different type of magic. There are humans, who use earth, orcs, who use water, elves, who use air, and dwarves, who use fire. I remember the book starting off with this poor kid who becomes the prince of the humans whipping boy. The king of the human race has this special ability to turn chosen people into these paladin like things, but the other races get mad he can do it and they can’t. So the "gods" or whatever give the king this crystal, which is split into four pieces, each race getting a piece to create their own paladins. But in the center of the crystal was the dark magic. When the young prince sees the dark center he becomes obsessed with it. Eventually the prince grows up and finds this dark artifact that can create his own dark paladins, but only people who are willing and they must die to do it. Anyone using the dark magic must give up part of their life, like if you use a spell you will break out in boils or whatever to make up for the energy used. The prince gets selected to become a light paladin. When they go to make him a paladin though he bursts into flames and it shows him for what he truly is, the dark paladin. I remember that the names of the dark paladins was something like Vakries or something like that. If anyone recognizes any of this and knows the name of the series please help!! This is driving me nuts!
Ok people, thanks to the ones who looked at the question and tried answering, I appreciate it. My friend who also read the series remembered it though. The series is called The Sovereign Stone series. They are fairly good books, I highly recommend reading them!

This is the first deck I ever made when I started playing and I’ve been working on it for those 4-5 years. It has a little low amount of lands for a beast deck, but with the look through deck for mana cards, tap creatures for mana, and the 8 medium costing creatures that reduce mana costs, it makes up for it. I plan on finishing this deck by getting 2 Stampeding Serows. It has an excellent balance of 3 mana costing cards, regeneration, life gain (even though it’s 1 card), and power. Flyers can be blocked early with Anurid Swarmsnapper and later with Needleshot Gournas. The point of the deck, like any other beast deck is to overflow the mana pool fast, and send out the biggens. I have many combos for that. Krosan Drovers and Warchiefs, reducing the costs, Cryptic Gateway for freebies, and the Stampeding Serow/Fierce Empath combo. I first play Fierce Empath, get a Rhox. Then that turn or next, I play Stampeding Serow. At the beginning of my turns, I return Fierce Empath and replay it. I get my badass beasts out at a rediculous rate and overrun them (not the card Overrun). Also, no one ever expects to see a Rhox gain 7/ 7 when I play Might of Oaks. Of course we all know that decks are never done because more cards come out, but this deck for the msot part is done. Please, comment and any other suggestions. I know about Nature’s Will and combo with Cryptic Gateway and Intruder Alarm. I like what I have and how you don’t see some of these combos much.
P.S. I have never played this in tournaments before, just with many many friends.
