The Alternation of Light and Shadow

On the ruins of the glorious era, the king had already left his seat. The nobility was divided, the empire was decaying, and the flag of the rebels fell in a pool of blood time and time again. He woke up in the snow, aimless and without belonging. His blood can purify carrion and awaken sleeping monsters. He does not belong to the light, nor does he believe in the darkness. He stood between light and shadow. The gears deep in the city turned for him, and the weapons of the past began to wake up. Even the shadow of light opened its eyes because of his blood. I remember you, but you have already forgotten me. This is not important. What is important is Can you... Can you ascend the throne?
