A world shattered by the wars of gods. A land rebuilt under the watchful eye of the Church of the Divine Inheritance. A throne of bones waiting for a ruler strong enough to seize it.
Ducaine de Bordeaux was never meant to inherit power. A bastard son of a disgraced house, he should have been forgotten, a shadow in the halls of Burjean. But war, betrayal, and blood have a way of rearranging destiny. Through cunning and ruthless ambition, Ducaine rises from the ashes of his fallen family, forging alliances in the dark and setting his sights on something far greater than a mere county.
Yet the lords of Yuropa do not bow easily. The Church watches with wary eyes. The kings play their endless games. And in the depths of the ruined world, something stirs; something older than empires, older than men.
To seize power, Ducaine must be willing to risk everything. His honor. His soul. His very humanity.
Because in the end, all that matters is this: Will he conquer the world before the world consumes him?
Or is the rise of Ducaine de Bordeaux destined to end in ruin, like the countless rulers before him?
The sun is rising...and it burns red.
