the Star of Caelvaria

A fallen prince wanders the world beneath unfamiliar stars, determined to live . After the fall of his home, the island kingdom of Caelvaria, Elarion survives by becoming someone else entirely. A drifter. Jackspade. A refugee moving from road to road across the lands of Therra. The world believes he died alongside his family, and he allows the lie to live. A ghost, scraping together a living while quietly yearning for a place to call home. All he wants is a normal life. To blend in. To be forgotten. He knows that fighting the empire that took his home, ruled by a king known as the Godslayer, would be impossible. The only piece of Caelvaria he carries with him is his cloak, stitched with stars and love. It is the last fragment of an identity he is slowly losing. Until he stumbles upon destiny itself. A cursed dagger. The blade speaks. It mocks, questions, and judges. Bound together by forces neither fully understands, the two are drawn into a world where ancient gods begin to stir, the Virean Empire tightens its grip on the rest of Therra, and the Veil between realms starts to weaken. And no matter how far Elarion runs, destiny refuses to let him disappear. The Star of Caelvaria is an epic fantasy about exile, identity, and the cost of survival, told through a prince who wants nothing more than a normal life and a cursed dagger with far too much to say about it.
