In the continent of Boreatica, where chivalry masks a thirst for power, knights are fierce and selfish individuals who cloak themselves in grandiose ideals to conceal their blind lust for dominance. The knights of the Royal Order of Ferlonia are no exception.
In the year 973 P.C., newly accoladed recruits are thrust into a trial by fire for their first mission. Divided into pairs, they are dispatched to retrieve Exoplions, enchanted breastplates, from fallen knights now deemed enemies of the Kingdom of Ferlonia.
Anker and Madja seem to have drawn a fortunate lot. They are tasked with retrieving the silver Exoplion of Viryl of the White Gale, an elusive fallen knight who has lived in seclusion on the desolate Horn of Morghorou for years.
However, the idyllic pastures and autumnal foliage conceal unexpected dangers, and a single careless decision can prove fatal.
This premise sets the stage for an unforeseen adventure, leading Anker to embark on a quest alongside his enemy to recover a stolen artifact, the ancient and obscure Stele of Demetriscus of the Temple of Ghorou.
The true quest, however, is an internal, human one, of a novice knight who is still unaware of the harsh reality of the world that surrounds him.
What to expect:
- Strategic action
- Monster slaying
- Enemy base infiltration
- Mediterranean setting
Beware: the smut content is minimal (three or four episodes in the whole book), and well contextualized (at least I hope), concerning mainly the tags I added plus more I didn't have the space for. It could be good or bad news depending on what you came here for, but I guess being honest from the start won’t make you waste your time.
(If you find any unclear names in the story, be sure to check the glossary!)
RELEASE SCHEDULE:
A new chapter every Friday at a random hour. Until I get tired of going through the effort of keeping up a weekly schedule without seeing an outcome to my consistency. Which may happen very soon.
