COMPLETED NOVEL Book One is fully written and will be posted in its entirety through regular daily updates. If you're enjoying Adam's journey, consider following, commenting, or leaving a rating. Every bit of support helps the story reach new readers. Adam Cross expected to spend his life living beneath the shadow of his family's disgrace. Instead, he awakens a golden aura that should not exist. With war looming against the Northern Empire, Adam is sent to Archon Academy, where knights and mages train side by side despite centuries of distrust. Surrounded by nobles who look down on him and rivals eager to prove themselves, Adam struggles to master his newfound power. But the golden aura is more than a rare gift. It is a secret tied to the kingdom's founding, a secret his mother died protecting, and one that powerful enemies would kill to keep buried. As war spreads across the kingdom, Adam must decide what kind of knight he wants to become—and whether he can survive long enough to uncover the truth.
