A family destroyed, a blood debt paid in blood!
His mother was brutally murdered, his father vanished, and overnight Kailan went from a boy at the harbor to an imperial fugitive.
Cornered with no way out, he gained power from the Realm of the Void.
A retired assassin became his mentor and showed him the darkest truths of the empire. The powerful experimented on plague victims, while the city guard colluded with the assassins’ guild.
“Take your revenge yourself.”
From then on, Kailan became a shadow, his blade bringing both an end to a personal vendetta and judgment upon a rotten empire.
There is no turning back. He must either be crowned king in eternal darkness or sink into the abyss before dawn breaks.
All things return to nothingness, and all things must be promised.
