A samurai watches the mist move across the fields and tells himself it is nothing. A knight on a distant wall feels the same wind and thinks the same thing. They are both wrong. Nine realms. Eight centuries of peace. One war about to wake them all. A multi-POV fantasy story in style of Game of Thrones, featuring imperial legions, samurai clans, and knightly orders, alongside elves, dwarves, beastfolk, and many other mythical creatures that inhabit the world.
