Description
From the shadows of slavery, a legend begins to rise...
A slave. A warrior. And secrets meant to stay buried.
When a young girl is found abandoned on the castle steps in the medieval town of High Crown, she is swiftly claimed by a kitchen servant and thrust into a life of slavery. With no memory of who she is or where she came from, she has no refuge beyond the cold stone walls that bind her—and no hope of escape.
But some things are more feared than chains.
As whispers spread of giants stirring beyond the borders—ancient, fearsome beings thought slaughtered long ago—she finds an unlikely ally in a mighty warrior. Under his guidance, she learns the way of the sword—not just to survive, but to prepare for a destiny unknown even to her.
Drawn beyond the safety of High Crown, this warrior and girl embark on a journey through a land haunted by legends, kept by curses, and steeped in secrets long buried. What they uncover will change everything.
And when darkness rises, the fate of the realm will rest in the hands of a girl without a past—and the warrior who walks at her side.
