How far must loyalty go?
To Maxillio Luminor Martel, life seemed perfectly flawless. He has earned a position as a Petroknight, one of the emperor's elite guards. It is a position millions have pursued, yet few ever achieved, and it comes with the strongest vow of loyalty to the emperor that anyone could give.
That changes when the emperor sent him on a mission to suppress a rebellion. What started as an ordinary mission would come to test the very vow he had given. The choices he makes will send shockwaves throughout his nation and change the lives of millions forever.

Recalls of Surrender
Alchemy has always been a key to understanding the universe, yet it has often been dismissed as mere superstition. The truth seared through my veins like scorching heat, igniting every cell of my being with a searing, uncompromising judgment. I sacrificed everything-my strength and sense of identity-chasing after an overwhelming purpose. Duty and conviction waged a war against a primal yearning for freedom, unleashing a maelstrom of emotions that threatened to tear me apart. This internal hell fueled an insatiable, maddening lust for vengeance, obliterating my moral compass and propelling me toward utter destruction. Only when I made a final decision did the fundamental principles of morality seem to slip through my fingers like grains of sand. Each savage blow against the oppressive system left me questioning: am I a righteous crusader, or a monster consumed by hatred? The poisonous doubt gnawed at my mind, suffocating my thoughts with insidious whispers. Yet, I found the strength to silence them. With fierce determination burning in my veins, I vowed to break free from the chains of oppression or die trying. Fear would not hold me captive any longer. As I teetered on the edge of life and death, I couldn't help but wonder: would I emerge victorious or succumb to the relentless wheels of fate? The answer lies shrouded in the mists of an uncertain future, but one thing is irrefutable: win or lose, every decision will ignite an inferno of change. This cataclysmic revolution will raze the old world and herald the birth of a new era. In this cosmic roulette, even the most steadfast warriors can turn to dust in the blink of an eye. Therefore, are you willing to participate? Given that there always was, is, and will be war. Hope stands stronger than fear, yet anything is possible when darkness lingers. It is the deflection of accountability and guilt. Yet when all seems lost, trust that the butterfly knows where the water flows.

The Unknowns had done their best to keep their gifts a secret, but one fateful event left them all exposed. Everyone expected a war, but no one counted on the many other downfalls that exposure would bring... ATTENTION: This is Book #2 in this series.Complete
The Aegis Vow: Sovereign Arbiter
He was the only son of the Emperor who dared to call the Imperium a failure. Primarch Valerius was lost to the annals of history, a forgotten relic of the Great Crusade. Unlike his zealous brothers, Valerius was not ruled by faith or fury, but by one absolute law: The Doctrine of Necessary Utility. When the Sovereign Arbiter of Humanity's Survival returns, he finds the Imperium crippled by superstition, bureaucracy, and a war fought with obsolete doctrine. The revered Codex Astartes is merely a roadmap to failure, and the High Lords are worse than any Xenos threat. Valerius refuses to lead a rebellion. Instead, he begins a surgical, systematic crusade to prove that the only path to survival is absolute, ruthless efficiency. He builds the Aegis Imperium, unites the fragmented Space Marine Chapters under his cold, logical command, and forces Roboute Guilliman to yield to a new form of governance. His purpose is singular, and his final vow is the most dangerous of all: to gather forbidden relics, breach Holy Terra, and attempt the impossible-to restore his broken father on the Golden Throne. A Primarch's logic will either save humanity or shatter it forever. Experience the saga of the Primarch who broke every rule of the 41st Millennium to fulfill the Final Vow.

The Crown Between Us
Princess Clarke Tauri has always been a symbol - the jewel of the Serran Empire, second in line to a throne she never asked to inherit, trained in diplomacy, etiquette... and how to weaponize a smile. But when war bleeds across the continent and rebellion ignites in the shadows, her father sends her to Basgiath War College with one order: Watch. Learn. Do not bond a dragon. But Clarke has never been good at following the rules. Thrust into the brutal world of Rider Quadrant, she enters under her true name - publicly royal, infamously spoiled, and far more dangerous than anyone expects. Her peers whisper that she's a pawn. A liability. A crown with no place on the battlefield. Until she starts proving them wrong. With a sharp tongue, secret scars, and a fire that won't stay buried, Clarke begins to carve her own legend - and catch the attention of two very different men: Dain Aetos, the golden boy with loyal hands and a wounded heart... and Garrick Tavis, the scowling wing leader who sees too much and trusts nothing. But dragons don't bond to pretty titles or whispered threats. And as tensions rise between rebellion and regime, Clarke must decide what she's willing to burn to become more than a symbol - to become something real. Because in Basgiath, surviving is a choice. Becoming fire is a declaration.Complete
