He has bled for him, fought for him, and learned to extract the truth from his enemies’ minds, while never once questioning the one relationship he holds sacred. When he finds Miralak dying in the ruins of Mournwood, maimed, run through, and smiling. He understands that his Master engineered every moment of it. As the plan unravels and the dust settles, the most dangerous truth Hectvul will ever face isn't hidden in an enemy's thoughts. It's been with him the whole time. Lithilde was forged by loss. She survived the ruin of her homeland, the loss of her people and built a life from the rubble of an arranged marriage. With her Lord Husband slowly dying. Lithilde breaks an uneasy peace with Miralak to secure the means to save the love of her life. Her reward is him refusing the gift she risked herself and their town to give him. Now vengeance is on her doorstep, and she has no choice but to fight, in every way she can. Dalyn, a squire in training has been selected for a dangerous mission. To be part of an advance force sent to relieve Lithilde and her people from the forces of Hectvul. He carries his convictions like armour and hopes to prove himself worthy of Recurrence. If he does, death will never be permanent, merely an inconvenience. The Order Dalyn believes in is real to him, the cause is just, and his courage is genuine. None of this will protect him from what the world truly is. Afterall, some lessons are only learned after the damage is done. This is a fully complete, 106k word novel, releasing weekly on Tuesdays.
