Alerian is a prince born into politics who dreams only of becoming a simple warrior. Frierem is a gentle farm boy forced into a world that demands a strength he does not possess. One is destined to rule but longs for freedom. The other is destined for peace but is denied it. Fate deals them both a cruel hand, forcing each to endure impossible trials in two very different worlds. As kingdoms shift and tensions rise, their paths inevitably collide. Branded as enemies by the very people they seek to protect, they must decide whether to follow the roles history has written for them—or forge their own. This story is told through the eyes of both protagonists, where the line between hero and villain blurs, and every truth depends on whose side is telling it. For history is only written by the victor.
