After the brutal loss of his beloved grandfather, Liam Hunter embarks on a harrowing journey into the heart of the Dark Forest, known as the Forest of Kyrell, with a singular goal: to gain the strength necessary to honor his grandfather's memory and to never lose anyone dear to him again.

At just ten years old, Liam is thrust into a world of darkness and malevolence, where he endures four grueling years of training and transformation. In this shadowy realm, he is reborn as a fierce warrior, driven by a relentless desire to eradicate every demon and ultimately confront the Demon King, Vorgath himself.

To achieve his formidable goal, Liam must forsake any emotional connections that could weaken his resolve. The once vibrant and joyful boy is transformed by his trials into a cold and unfeeling combatant, hardened by the harsh realities of his quest.

This is the story of Liam Hunter—the last wielder of dark magic—whose journey through darkness and sacrifice will shape him into a force of vengeance and resolve.

ShadowBound: The Need For Power

As the week passed, students finalized their course selections and received their schedules. Within Liam and Ariana's group, Sheila and Charlotte also confirmed their choices. By the end of the process, several of them found themselves sharing classes.

Liam and Asher ended up in both Fire Magic and Knight Combat Training together. Ariana and Dylan shared Alchemy. Sheila and Asher were in Strategic Command and Leadership, while Max and Dylan took Forgemastery. Charlotte and Sheila both had Knight Combat Training.

Most of them were glad they'd run into each other throughout the day, but one particular pairing raised some eyebrows—especially Dylan's.

Charlotte had chosen Tactical Espionage and Diplomacy. And somehow, she had ended up in the same class as Liam.

Which led to this moment—Dylan standing in front of Charlotte with an expression of sheer, exaggerated suspicion. His green eyes narrowed, his lips pursed, and his arms crossed.
