Everyone sees colors normally... except me. When people are angry, when they lie, when they mean harm... I see red. Threads, shadows, and eyes watching me from places that shouldn't be there. I thought my ability was just a curse, until the city began to change, and people disappeared one by one, as if something was awakening beneath it. And the closer I got to the truth... the red began to engulf me too.

A samurai watches the mist move across the fields and tells himself it is nothing. A knight on a distant wall feels the same wind and thinks the same thing. They are both wrong. Nine realms. Eight centuries of peace. One war about to wake them all. A multi-POV fantasy story in style of Game of Thrones, featuring imperial legions, samurai clans, and knightly orders, alongside elves, dwarves, beastfolk, and many other mythical creatures that inhabit the world.
