The Life Debt

By R.F. Cisneros

Born to the blade. Bound by honor. Ready for the wild.

Sixteen-year-old Morgan Blacken-Hill has spent her youth training alongside the realm's finest soldiers under the watchful eye of her father, the Captain of the King's Guard. But her heart doesn't belong behind castle walls. Drawn to the untamed freedom of the frontier, she longs to follow the legacy of her late mother, a legendary A-rank adventurer.

When a routine hunt deep within the perilous Bloodwood Forest spirals into a lethal ambush, Morgan's blade erupts with an unexpected magic. Alongside Doran, a gruff dwarven smith who binds himself to her by an ancient, unbreakable "life debt," Morgan leaps headfirst into the treacherous world of the Adventurer's Guild.

From clearing deadly goblin nests to out-sprinting ferocious ogres, Morgan must rely on her grueling training, sharp wits, and trusted allies to survive. Step into a gripping high-fantasy journey of grit, discipline, and discovery as a young warrior steps out of her father's shadow to forge her own destiny.
