Gods use "divine gifts" to rule mortals. Give strength and plant shackles.
Kane is the Godless One - a blacksmith apprentice who everyone calls "waste". When the mentor's "seven-day curse" comes and all the gods fall into madness, Kane must find a way to break it within seven days.
He embarks on a journey to trace the legacy of previous eras. But he discovered that the gods were once heroes, and heroes will eventually fall. And the only way to break the cycle is not to kill gods, but to make mortals no longer need gods.
This is an epic about resistance, responsibility and reconciliation. It is also a story about how a blacksmith keeps everyone standing and living.
"Mortal Oath" - The will of mortals is higher than that of gods.
