For six generations, his family has held the title of Hero of Farathun. Now, his father lies dead, dishonored, stripped of his title. He is only a boy, untested, unnamed, unready to take up his father's sword.

But that doesn't matter, because he has a plan. Three simple steps.

1) Master the sword

2) Earn his name

3) Take back his father's title

It doesn't matter that it's impossible. It doesn't matter what challenges he will face. His family's legacy will continue, unbroken.

But when opportunity comes knocking at his door, will he be ready to seize it?

When a new teacher finds him, and challenges all that he thought was true, the boy is whisked away on an adventure that will take him far beyond the bounds of his home. He'll learn, and grow, and gain strength. He will find his place in the wider world, and leave his mark in history.

Or die trying.
