Steel and Sorrow: Rise of the Mercenary king
Bound in chains yet yearning for freedom, Alpheo, a modern historian, finds himself enslaved in a land on the brink of chaos.
As the empire of Rolmia plunges into civil war following the death of the emperor , his three ambitious sons vie for the throne. In the midst of this turmoil, Alpheo finds the chance to break his chain and escape, leading his companions into the ashes of war, trying to thrive in it, selling their swords to the highest bidder .
But beyond the borders of Rolmia, hungry eyes watch as the empire's grip loosens. The Sultanate of Azania, ever the opportunist, sees a chance to expand its domain and influence , while to the south, neighboring principalities breathe a sigh of relief as the once-dominant giant stumbles and falters.
In the sea, the confederation of the Free Isle finds their chance to restore their old maritime power , denied to them by an empire that is now crumbling beneath itself , lacking the strenght to stop them.
In this crucible of conflict, where dynasties crumble and empires fall, Alpheo find his call and the chance to forge his own destiny amidst the ashes of empires.

The starting chapters will be about defining the worl-building of the novel, also the work will follow many stories even though the main one will be of the mc. I hope that you will like it , as I believe it will be my best one

You are building the world background quite nicely. And I love how you are clear about the personality of the characters. And how you progress the story with a clear goal in mind
Well done to you![img=recommend][img=recommend]
love your story’s love how this has begun and how it’s moving
The story has potential, but the beginning "world building" chapters are almost unintelligible. The story keeps jumping to different characters and it ends up completely ruined due to that.
novel is good, author is good, but not my type.
It's like Game of Thrones and it's terrible... Terribly delicious! The book is great and the author of soldering stars thanks for it!-----------------------------------------------------------------
fantastic story with realistic world building and history, the most captivating part of the story is the well thought-out plot as through the multiple POV's we get a layered story of different factions and intrigue. Hope this story gets its recognition and support it deserves, good luck Author.
Although I’ve only read 6 chapters the world building and lore is nice, I’m liking the characters so far, with only 80 chaoters it’s still like a baby book hoping to see more though. Keep up the book author I like it so far.
Really Great Nobel More Charters please [img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend][img=update][img=update][img=update][img=recommend]
Really good start!!! Let’s see what happens next. Author please don’t drop it
Story is excellent I love reading it, however there are a decent amount of spelling and grammar mistakes but it is not so bad that it is story breaking. Most are minor and my brain automatically corrects it while reading but the grammar could definitely be better. All in all amazing novel and great read :)
the mc and side characters are well fleshed out the diffrent povs for other rulers or important side characters are my only dislike since I want more on how Alpheo will grow.If you enjoy an overall broader perspective of the world building happening through other important semi main characters povs you'll enjoy it a lot.the way they describe warfare is realistic and unique honestly peak beginning the developments currently are great 8/10 if we go by an unbiased opinion 10/10 since its been a long time since I've seen a novel in this genre be depicted with the mc actually doing what rulers would do etc instead of going pokemon catching for the women and turning it more into a harem story.
enjoying the story happy to continue following
