Was it selfishness, power, or a few simple mistakes-for which millions of innocent lives had to pay the price?
During the ancient Vraigetin era, Vermetriz was the most powerful empire in the world named Berth. But following the mysterious death of Emperor Satrivious, his cruel, immoral, and monstrous nephew, Severious, seized the throne. On the very night of his coronation, Severious committed a tragic and brutal crime-an act that ultimately triggered one of the bloodiest conflicts in history: the 12-year-long War of Forolath.
To wage war against sin and unrighteousness in the pursuit of justice, two twin princes from Evertroz-Sarsilius and Whealvemir-took up arms on behalf of 17 allied kingdoms. They were no ordinary warriors; bound by a mysterious ancient power, the two brothers were invincible on the battlefield.
After 12 grueling years, as the war's final chapter was drawing near, the elder prince, Sarsilius, received news of his father's critical illness and set off for Evertroz. However, gravely injured during a fierce skirmish along the way, he lost his path. His journey brought him to the mysterious Otrelis Forest and into the presence of Sprisirus, a youth of ethereal beauty. It was there that a forbidden and intense obsession began to stir within Sarsilius's stern and disciplined heart.
Meanwhile, left alone on the battlefield, the younger brother Whealvemir was haunted in his dreams by an invisible, alluring figure-a vision that thrust him into an unnatural restlessness and a deep trance.
Will the ancient power binding the two brothers, the spellbinding pull of an ethereal form, and the tug of love ultimately push them into catastrophic danger? Can they break their ancient curse, bring an end to this bloody war, and protect their kingdom? **********************
