About

Blind obedience is the only way to survive in the king's militia...or at least, it's the only way for humans to survive. In a city dominated by a tyrannical Gurvel cult, soldiers who disobey condemn not only themselves, but their entire squad, to either be "purified by fire" or forced to fight in The Games. Determined to keep his head down, Ronan strives to follow orders, but the torment of sending innocent people to their deaths is slowly destroying his will to live.

Humans aren't the only ones who suffer oppression in the capital city. After wiping out the Speki, the cult is now on the cusp of enslaving all other forms of life. Eira, one of the remaining two Speki assassins, has vowed to kill the cult's leader to avenge her people, but she might have to shatter her brother's dreams in the process.

Meanwhile, Khartsaga, the son of the cult leader, desperately strives to earn his father's respect but is shackled by his guilty conscience. As tensions rise and events begin to unfold, the soldier, the assassin, and the cultist must choose between their own desires and the fate of the world.

Cultist. Assassin. Soldier.
Who will rise to quench the fires of tyranny?
