Aria of Ash

In a scouting mission gone awry, Kaiser, a young squire under the Duke of Abdera, discovers a disastrous force capable of demolishing the kingdom he calls home. As the unfortunate harbinger of this news, he tarnishes his name and thrusts his homeland into imminent war. Now, given another chance, he must leave to seek his own truth regarding the beast that paints the world in flames.

Joined by a sorceress of unfathomable power, Kaiser follows a road paved with more questions than answers, and the two of them face every manner of beast, human or otherwise, to avert a world of ruin.
