Arian October is sixteen, and he dreams of becoming a knight. A real one — with a sword, an oath, and armor. He wants to protect the ones he loves — his family, his home, the world he grew up in.
But this world doesn’t wait for heroes. It’s falling apart — slowly, crack by crack. Kingdoms drown in blood, monsters crawl out of legend, and those who once swore to protect have become executioners.
Arian is not ready. He’s too young, too stubborn, too naïve.
But when everything begins to collapse — he has no choice.
Because someone has to stand between destruction and the last hope.
Even if that someone is just a trembling boy with a fragile faith in good.
