A forgotten bloodline. A stolen crown. A flame that never died.
Cael Thornborne was never meant to survive.
Born beneath a burning tree. Branded by a symbol older than time. Raised in silence. Hunted by a kingdom that erased his name from history.
But fire doesn't forget.
And neither does the sky.
When Cael awakens a blade that breathes memory-and speaks in silence-he is forced to confront a truth buried in the bones of empires: the throne of Harrowen was never earned. It was taken. And it was taken from him.
Now the fire inside him stirs again. Not as a curse.
But as a vow.
