CONFLICTING CONQUEST

Dominic grew up idolizing the Mage Emperor—the man who ended a five-hundred-year war and became a symbol of peace. Determined to follow in his footsteps, Dominic dreams of a world without conflict. But the peace he admired was a lie. Beneath the surface, corruption festers, entwining rulers, laws, and institutions in a system too rotten to endure. As his faith in the world erodes, Dominic reaches a chilling conclusion: this world cannot be saved as it is. It must be broken. To forge true change, he must confront the very foundations of civilization—challenging enemies, alliances, and ideals alike—and risk becoming the force of destruction he once swore to fight.
