Born in exile, Pyrrhus of Epirus rises to reclaim his lost kingdom, proving himself a warrior as fierce as his ancestor, Achilles. From the battlefields of Greece to the war-torn lands of Italy, he wages war against powerful enemies, including Macedon, Rome, and shifting allies who betray him at every turn. As he builds an empire through blood and conquest, Pyrrhus seeks not just victory, but immortality—a place among the greatest legends of history.

But war demands sacrifice. And the price of ambition is steep.


Years after his father’s fall, Alexander II of Epirus is forced into exile, raised in a land of warriors. As a young king, he reclaims his throne and seeks to restore his father’s legacy. But he soon faces an even greater threat—Rome, an empire that will not bow to kings or gods.

Outnumbered and surrounded by betrayal, Alexander must decide what kind of ruler he will be—one who fights for his people, or one who fights for history. As war consumes the land, his destiny unfolds in a battle that will determine not only his fate, but the fate of all who defy the rise of an empire.

Crown and Blood

The plains of Macedon stretched before Pyrrhus's army. Thousands of Epirotes, Illyrians, and mercenaries stood ready. Their banners fluttered in the wind, their weapons gleaming under the morning sun.

Pyrrhus sat atop his warhorse, his golden armor reflecting the light.

Across the field, Cassander's army awaited. Their shields locked together, their phalanx standing unbreakable.

Echecrates rode up beside Pyrrhus, his face grim.

"The Macedonians are well-trained," he said. "They will not break easily."

Pyrrhus smirked. "Then we break them harder."

He raised his sword high, his voice carrying across the battlefield.

"Sons of Epirus! Macedon stole our throne! Today, we take it back!"

The clash of bronze on bronze filled the air. Pyrrhus led the charge himself, cutting through enemy lines like a storm.

Then, through the chaos, he locked eyes with Cassander.
