In an age of magic where warriors, mages, and gods exist. One man, a mere knight, walks a lonely path.
Humiliated, beaten and cursed. His lord killed in a rebellion. The heir bribed, controlled as a puppet by a witch. With no family, money or honor left, this is the story of a shamed knight.
With nothing but a fate weaved on a God's whims. With nothing but the sword of his dead lord. With nothing but the mere wish for a reason to live.
This is the story of Morgan Buoyant.
