Infos

A shattered empire. A forgotten crown. A boy consumed by its power.
Seventeen-year-old Lysander, an orphan scavenging for survival in the ruins of Arthenia, unearths the Obsidian Crown, a relic of immense power whispering promises of a reunited empire.  Driven by the need to protect his younger sister, Elara, Lysander embraces the crown's seductive whispers, transforming from a desperate survivor into a ruthless leader.  Victories come swiftly, fueled by strategic insights and glimpses into a forgotten past, but with each triumph, the crown's grip tightens, its promises turning into demands, its whispers echoing the tyranny of a vanished emperor.
Kaida, a fiery rebel leader and rightful heir to Arthenia's fractured throne, sees in Lysander the potential to end generations of conflict.  She forges a tenuous alliance with him, her warrior spirit and knowledge of the land complementing his burgeoning power.  But as Lysander's ambition grows, fueled by the crown's dark influence, Kaida's hope turns to dread. The boy she seeks to champion is becoming the very tyrant he aims to overthrow.
Their perilous journey weaves through sun-scorched deserts and mist-shrouded mountains, as they forge uneasy alliances and face betrayals that cut deeper than any blade.  Meanwhile, a shadowy cult known as the Dusk Covenant hunts Elara, believing she holds the key to unleashing an era of eternal darkness. Unbeknownst to Lysander, his sister's fate is inextricably bound to the destiny of the empire, and the crown's terrifying hunger threatens to consume them all.  Can Kaida awaken the boy she once believed in before the Obsidian Crown claims his soul and plunges Arthenia into an age of shadows? Or will the whispers of power drown out the last vestiges of his humanity, forging a phantom king who mirrors the very tyranny he seeks to destroy?
