Primordial Essence of Battle

The gods are a lie. Mythos is fairytale of the clueless. And the Path of Battle is written in blood. When Silver's remote village is wiped out by an invading evil army, he expects a holy savior. Instead, he gets Ares, a scholarly, arrogant powerhouse who rejects the title of "God" and views mortal life as nothing more than a bloody whirlpool. Hunted by unseen forces for reasons he doesn't yet understand, Silver must abandon his naive worldview and survive the ultimate lesson; True strength isn't granted by the Heavens it's carved from blood, pain, and an unyielding will.
