Light Talon was born from a family of known assassins, the Talon, but little did he know of the truth. Little did he know that he's the last heir to the race of assassins from France to kill the King of England. Little did he know that he will serve under his family's biggest opponent, the family of Ascarlon, a name of knights vowed to protect the king of England, and to kill any assassin they may confirm, and to kill the Talon until the last blood is spilled. Now Light lives as a farmer, a son to former assassins living within the territories of their enemy's lands. Through strings of fate, he is brought closer to his apparent death more than ever in his entire life, and how he'd live his life, through stealth and blows, and how he will be the last one drinking the cup of blood.
