Description

A village in flames. A cub with nothing left to lose. A war that will shape the fate of Myrosia.

When monstrous creatures raze the lionman village of Du’Ron, eleven-year-old Maurus is forced to flee with only his mother and a handful of survivors. As he struggles to make sense of the devastation, Maurus vows vengeance—no matter what it takes.

Years later, trained and battle-scarred, Maurus finds himself caught in a deeper war—one that stretches beyond his tribe, into the heart of a growing darkness. With the aid of a reclusive ophidian mage, a dwarven warrior, and a young minotaur chasing adventure and belonging, Maurus will face monstrous threats, betrayals, and truths that challenge everything he believes.

But vengeance comes at a cost. And as Maurus fights to become the warrior his people need, he must decide if he’s willing to lose what’s left of himself to honor the dead.
