He was only eight when the sky burned above his village.
Hidden beneath the ashes of a forgotten massacre, Rin has spent four long years surviving on whispers, shadows, and the remnants of a map his father left behind. The world calls him a ghost, a wandering orphan. But beneath the boy’s silence lies a storm.
When fate leads him to a masked traveler and an ancient symbol etched in royal armor, Rin is drawn into a web of old sects, buried powers, and a kingdom that fears what it cannot control.
Vengeance is not his only path—there are truths that bleed, swords that remember, and names that were never meant to be spoken aloud.
In a world where strength is worshiped and betrayal hides behind every smile, Rin must choose: will he remain a shadow… or become the storm that consumes the light?
