archers chase children forest knight knights mages nobles thieves

A long time ago, it was thought to be pre-determined before your birth whether you would carry on your life on the path of good or the path of evil. Some people have changed their thoughts on this and say people can change. But even at that, can people really change?

Sierra Fidelis and Leo Volaticus lived their lives together as Nobles in their town of Regium for ten years. On the night of his tenth birthday, Leo mysteriously disappeared. The Knights searched the forest for days, and then weeks, but never found young Leo. Some say that he was stolen by Thieves, or shot with an arrow by Archers, or taken to some strange land by the Mages. Not even Sierra knew where he best friend had run off to.

Eight years passed, and any hope of finding Leo was long gone. Sierra, following through with her dream to be a Knight, chases a Thief into the surrounding forest. After that, she finds Leo's true fate. Would she have been better off accepting he was dead?

So can you really turn good after being evil? How do you know when you've reached your limit?All Rights Reserved

These three rules got her through life-- not unscathed, but alive. Even when she didn't want to be. ... Giuseppe De Santis had been searching for his missing daughter, ever since she was taken all those years ago. When he finally gets the phonecall saying she's been found, he's ecstatic. Finally happy that everything can go back to the way it used to be. But Sierra has changed since she was a baby and she knows nothing of him and his world. And when she isn't speaking to him or her brothers, it's almost impossible to get her to open up. They must learn to be a family again, but that's almost impossible. There are so many secrets between them and other factors are at play. Factors that are determined to get Sierra back, no matter who gets hurts. ...

However, two things will complicate this process. Night Raid, a group of revolutionary assassins who serve the people and have the same ultimate goal as (Y/N). Esdeath, a general who hails from the northern frontier and is proclaimed as the Empire's Strongest. But (Y/N) didn't expect this to be an easy road. Nothing in his life had ever come easy. But with his goal in mind, his mentality became simple. Anyone that stood in his way will Fade To Black.
