An ancient power stirs within Skippii—one not granted by the Pantheon. One they fear. A young legionnaire charges headlong into peril, eager to claim glory with his bloody spear. Separated from his brothers-in-arms, Skippii soon discovers that bronze alone cannot withstand the blight of heresy. On the brink of death, he prays for salvation and unearths a power to oppose the dark gods. But at what cost? Striving to unlock the mysteries of this forbidden magia, he enlists the help of an unexpected ally—a timid slave with surprising skills. Together, they temper his newfound talents in secrecy. Yet, the light of an inferno is not so easily obscured. His comrades demand answers. Will the bonds between legionnaires prevail, or will Skippii’s quest for glory doom the Legion he adores? A city under siege. Legendary monsters lurking in the wildlands. A war that threatens to fracture the Realm. The fate of an age won’t be decided by the heavens alone—not while the legionnaires of the firesworn still draw breath.
