In a world where chaos is no rare occurrence-where monsters appearing in the confinement of stone walls erected from the earth would frequent humanity's doorstep, Alexander Rose was hellbent in becoming a hunter; those who raid these castles to eradicate these abominations. A protector of mankind of sorts. Yet what awaited him wasn't a journey of fame and glory, but a tale of his own ignorance.
In a world ruled by ruthless power, the strong hunt the weak and mercy is a forgotten word. Abandoned at birth and branded the lowest of the low, Alexander is destined to be crushed-or so everyone believes. But deep within the boy burns a force he cannot yet name. Betrayals, brutal battles, and forbidden secrets forge him into a weapon no tyrant can control. As kingdoms fall and enemies gather, Alexander must rise from the ashes of his past to claim a destiny that can shatter the world itself .
