The Rising Blade

The Rising Blade

His faith couldn’t save her.
Magic would dishonor her.
Only the blade will do.

Yipachai is a simple acolyte boy, only slightly discontent with his quiet life in a monastery near the sea.

But when violence shatters his world, he is forced to abandon everything he’s been taught—almost.

Sworn to seek justice for the loss of his most beloved mentor, Yipachai must forge a new path for himself: one of blood and steel.

Yet vengeance cannot be accomplished by any means. To wield magic as a weapon would betray the memory of the one he lost.

Only the blade remains true.
