Seven will enter the tournament. Not all are meant to survive. One was never meant to wake. ---------------------------------------------------------------- In the land of Xaveria, the Tournament of the Eightfold is a sacred ceremony where champions of each kingdom compete under the eyes of gods long silent-dead to some. But beneath the pageantry lies a crumbling pact, a truth buried in ash and ritual. A forgotten aristocrat son, hidden behind wealth and wit, thrust into the arena as a pawn in a game he never asked to play. A fugitive, running from a bloodline she can no longer bear, seeking to disappear but discovering that fate has other plans. An exile, bound to a power older than almost the gods themselves, forced into the tournament before he can learn why. A nameless orphan, chosen by lottery, a token in a game where no one can afford to be forgotten. As ancient forces stir and elemental magic falters, alliances shift, secrets bleed, and death stalks the sand. The tournament will crown a victor. But it may awaken something far worse. ---------------------------------------------------------------- The gods sleep. Something else does not.
