A complex tale of war, politics and lust for power — Guardian

As an empire dies, three warriors will rise. They must ride the storm or drown in its blood.

The kingdom of Kisia is divided, held together only by the will of the god-emperor. When an act of betrayal shatters an alliance with the neighbouring land of Chiltae, all that has been won comes crashing down.

Now, as the fires of war spread, a warrior, an assassin, and a princess must chase their ambitions, no matter the cost.

War built the Kisian Empire. And now war will tear it down.
