AUC1049. The Emperor of Orbe is dead, and of the empire he founded within his lifetime, not a trace remains. Now his son, Zephyrin Aléri, is the political prisoner of his enemies. Will ‘The Golden Gryphon’ live to assume his rightful throne, carrying on his father’s glorious legacy, or is his name fated to vanish forever from history?

A historically inspired reincarnation story with fantasy elements. Updates weekly on Saturdays. Please note that this is a first draft and chapters are posted as I write them.

Schedule update: I was unable to write this week and so today's chapter will be delayed; expect one or two releases next week to compensate for this omission.
