Dare to journey where Olious leads in this dark, epic fantasy-an atmospheric tale of identity, moral awakening, love and loss, and the cost of becoming-where poetry bleeds.
They told him the walls were built for protection.
Olious knew better. They were built to keep things in.
Raised within the four walls of Levorin, Olious has never known freedom. But when longing pulls him beyond the safety of his father's kingdom, he steps into a world far different from what he once believed it to be.
Beyond the walls lie lands fractured by ancient wars, where the fallen whisper, prophecy is spoken, and light and shadow twist around every choice.
In the truths he uncovers and the lessons he is forced to learn, fate presses heavier than any crown. Somewhere deep beneath the earth, where light does not linger, darkness stirs once more, waiting to see what suffering will forge.
In halls of light, in roots beneath the earth, in cities walled by stone, and lands rebuilt over ash, the past is remembered differently.
Olious must decide what he is willing to become, for peace is never freely given.
'I heard you longed for peace? I must say, it is only when you go to war that you long for peace...'The world remembers what was lost.
The darkness remembers what was promised.
And destiny is not done with him yet.
