In an age when heroes and monsters still shaped the world, Seraphina—known as the Blade of Dawn—was a living legend. After years of war and bloodshed, she vanished, longing for peace. In a quiet village, she fell in love with a kind man named Lucien, hiding her past in hopes of a tranquil life.
But Lucien held a secret of his own: he was Azareth, the Demon Lord who had also forsaken his crown in search of peace. When Seraphina discovered the truth, she fled, carrying their unborn child.
A great battle followed. The forces of light, led by Seraphina’s father—the Hero of Light—faced the returning Demon Lord. Though Azareth was slain, the price was Seraphina’s life. With her dying breath, she named her child Cassian—a boy born of both light and shadow.
Raised in secrecy by his grandfather Alaric, Cassian grows up unaware of his true origins. He trains as a warrior under the banner of honor and protection, but strange powers stir within him. His strength is unnatural. His wounds heal overnight. And sometimes, in the still of night, he dreams in the voice of demons.
As Cassian begins to question his nature, his powers awaken—and the truth draws near.
Thus begins the tale of Cassian Lionheart: a boy of two worlds, destined to shape the fate of both.
