Born in war. Raised in shadow. Marco is a war orphan from the fallen land of Adena, raised by the infamous Black Wing bandits in the depths of Blackwood Forest. To the Republic of Senadon, they are ruthless outlaws. To the starving people of Adena, they are the only heroes left. Armed with a spear and bound by loyalty to the family that raised him, Marco lives for one purpose: protect his comrades and fight against those who oppress the weak. But when a single mission sets events in motion that will shake the entire continent of Ascalon, Marco is thrust into a world of war, politics, and ambition far beyond the forest he once called home. As kingdoms clash and old wounds are reopened, Marco must carve his own path through a world where loyalty is tested, ideals are challenged, and freedom comes at a terrible cost. In a land consumed by conquest, one young warrior will rise from the shadows to change the fate of nations.
