Basileus Ondraedon, the world's most feared warrior, is also a reclusive, self-centered, arrogant jerk. Known as the Halflord for his half-elven heritage, Basileus recounts the tales that made him the man he is today, in lecherous, back-stabbing and glorious detail.
Looking to escape his numerous enemies, Basileus, the half-human, half-elf warrior from Raven's Crest, arrives at a foreign land, seeking to make a fresh start with his trusted companion, Saras. When he learns that this new land, led by a Lord who seeks to become a King, needs a warrior such as himself, he eagerly lends himself out, for the right price. When his service to his new lord becomes more than he can bear, however, his loyalty is tested, betrayed, and broken. With his life on the line, will Basileus finally suffer the consequences of his arrogance, or will he prove once again why he's the greatest warrior he's ever known?
