Elyon Daecar was born to greatness — and has spent his life avoiding it.
As the second son of the First Blade, commander of the famed Varin Knights, Elyon inherited the skill, the name, and the reputation. Responsibility, however, belongs to his older brother. Elyon is content to win tourneys, drink with soldiers, and pursue a princess he absolutely should not be pursuing.
But while Elyon plays at heroism, the world is already changing.
In the northlands of Tukor, a servant girl named Saska watches her village unravel when a ruthless lord begins taking boys for a distant war. High in the mountains, a hidden order dispatches an assassin, armed with a forbidden blade and a name known across the realm.
Their lives have nothing in common.
Until they do.
As armies gather and old powers stir, Elyon is finally forced to face the life he has spent years escaping — not glory, not tourneys, but command, sacrifice, and war. Because the day is coming when Vandar will need a hero.
And Elyon may not be ready to become one.

Saska has one goal - assassinate Lord Kastor. Posing as a captured servant girl, she infiltrates the Kastor warcamp to face her demons, but before long finds herself hopelessly out of her depth. Enemies close in, old and new…and history has a habit of repeating itself.
Driven by the whispers of a long dead god, Jonik seeks a new purpose as he’s pursued by the order he betrayed. His journey will take him south, across the paths of men and monsters. Some seek to slay him; others to help guide him. And all the while his legend spreads.
With the Warrior King plotting to take full control of the north, sinister forces stir in the south. Some fight to stall war, others seek to incite it, as chaos and calamity threaten to engulf all the world. Kings will fall, champions will rise, secrets and prophesies will be unearthed.
The next great Renewal approaches, they say. But will it be the last?
