Within the walls, everyone's fate is recorded in the Fate Charts.
Some are born to be kings, while others are born to be slaves.
Soren was once nothing more than the lowliest gatekeeper before the Bronze Gate, until he discovered that the so-called "retirement ceremony" was actually a sacrifice.
Generation after generation of gatekeepers had their life force drained, all to keep the Bronze Gate shut forever and prevent the refugees beyond the walls from entering the city.
On the night he fled, Soren awakened the Blue Flame Sequence and became a Level 7 Ashen One.
Blue flame can incinerate holy light, burn through vows, see through Sequences, and even shake the shackles of the Twelve Fate Charts.
Rein gave his life to win Soren a chance to escape, and placed the stolen Fate Chart in his hands.
From then on, Soren would no longer guard the walls.
He would survive, burn through fate, and take revenge on the families standing in the shadow of the gods.
