Two brothers. One lie. A tangled destiny.
Gaeron Andel is a champion of the people. A faithful servant. An oath burned into him by his dying mother. He follows her path, the way of the warrior.
Gaeron upholds Heliran Andel’s honor as he seeks freedom from bondage while his treacherous brother spits on her memory in search of selfish glory.
With steel, Gaeron shields those who can’t protect themselves, while his brother casts family honor aside to claim an undeserved title.
A usurper lurks in the fold, a menace from within that may break their people. Gaeron wants his freedom, but he’s blood in the sand. His people come first. Freedom may have to wait for blood to be spilled.
Pitted against what is true and what revenge demands, Gaeron must decide between upholding family loyalty or bringing his brother to justice.
Can treachery grounded in shame be washed away by a brother’s blood?
