Born with shattered meridians and cast aside by the clan that once praised him as a prodigy, Kael Veyr has spent ten years as a living disgrace. When his betrothal is broken and his own family sends him into a cursed mine to die, Kael awakens something buried in his bloodline: the Cinder Seal, an ancient power feared by sects, kings, and gods alike. But power always has a price. To survive, Kael must rebuild his broken body, uncover the truth behind his father’s disappearance, and rise through a world where bloodlines decide fate — unless he burns fate itself to ash.
