Alberich was trained to be a weapon. He never expected to be stolen by a horse and claimed by his enemies.
Raised in Karse’s harsh military schools, Alberich kept his “demon” talents hidden—uncanny instincts that helped him rise quickly through the ranks. But when the Sunpriests uncover his secret, he’s marked for execution. His only escape comes from a mysterious white stallion who charges through fire to carry him across enemy lines into Valdemar.
Now a Herald against his will, Alberich must live among the people he once swore to destroy. Torn between duty, exile, and honor, he faces a new battle: how to serve a kingdom he doesn’t trust, while staying true to the man he used to be.
This isn’t your typical redemption arc. It’s survival, rewritten.
