The New Order

Malachi, a hedge knight becomes a Baron following the war between the Kingdom Of Astoria and the Illurien Empire. A man with an empire and buried secret, Malachi is here to change the current system and usher in a new order, all the while taking back what is his.  What to look forward to: 1. Gritty and realistic story. 2. Adequate Worldbuilding. 3. Medieval storytelling. 4. Low-fantasy. 5. Clash of politics and ideologies. 6. Moderate pacing. 7. Organic and realistic Kingdom Building. 8. War. Lots of war. Disclaimer:- This is a not a sword and magic fantasy. No power system or mana circulation or such. Though there will be some mystical nature.
