the knight of death

Seven knights once guarded the world — heavenly warriors forged in legend and light. And now, there remain only ruins. and one forgotten name mutters between the ashes. Kael, the shattered and betrayed soldier, arises from the depths of despondency when he loses all that matters — his honor, his brothers-in-arms, and even his very soul. As the empire's sinister experiment awakens an ancient power within him — the Core of Death — he is the host to a plague older than the gods themselves. As empires wage unannounced wars and dragons soar again in the skies, Kael treads the thin edge between life and forgetfulness. He is chased by the same empire he had battled and tormented by yesterday's guilt — but fate beckons him to the secret behind blood and foretelling.
