The Regressed Commander

In the year 872 of the Imperial Calendar, Dareth Dreadmoor stood as one of the kingdom of Lateria’s most respected commanders—until a final stand against an overwhelming horde left him as the last man standing... and dead.



But death was not the end.



Dareth awakens decades in the past, in the fragile body of a 14-year-old street orphan named Valen Stormveil, in a time when the monster threat still slumbers within distant dungeons, and the great war that shattered the world has not yet begun. In this second life, burdened with memories of bloodshed and loss, Valen must navigate a world that doesn’t yet know its fate.



Sheltered by a kind yet uncelebrated swordswoman named Alice Starwyn, Valen finds himself given a rare opportunity: to change everything. The question is not just can he rewrite fate, but what must he sacrifice to do so?



Enemies hide in plain sight. Allies from his past are still naïve and untouched by war. And Valen must rise again—not as a hero of legend, but as a boy reborn, playing the long game against destiny itself.



This time, he won't stand at the edge of ruin.

This time, he will be ready.



The Regressed Commander is a story of rebirth, destiny, and the courage to defy a broken fate.
