I'm InkSmith. I don't deal in fairy tales or happy endings. What I write is about power - how it's taken, how it's kept, and how it corrodes those foolish enough to believe they can wield it without consequence.

You won't find spotless heroes in my stories. Instead, expect flawed men and women clawing their way through politics, war, and faith, each of them forced to choose between ideals and survival. Progress comes at a cost, and my worlds make you pay the bill in full.

If you're looking for lighthearted adventures where good always triumphs, you're in the wrong place. But if you want intrigue, ambition, and the bitter truth that empires are built on compromise and blood - then welcome. Pull up a chair; you'll fit right in.
