Sword Catcher

In the pulsating heart of Castellane, from opulent nobles to the city's darkest corners, the quest for power, riches, and pleasure is relentless. Kel, snatched from his past, bears the weighty role of the Sword Catcher. He's the spitting image and protector of Prince Conor Aurelian. Brought up alongside the prince, he's been molded for combat and governance. Their bond mirrors that of siblings, yet Kel's fated path is clear: to be the shield, even at the cost of his life, for Conor. Lin Caster, hailing from the magically endowed Ashkar community, is a healer. Though they are confined by walls, Lin's oath takes her beyond, offering her healing touch to Castellane's afflicted. A barrier, however, stands between her and saving her closest friend—a barrier built on prohibited knowledge. A botched assassination forges an unlikely alliance between Lin and Kel. This twist of fate entangles them with the enigmatic Ragpicker King, the mastermind behind Castellane's criminal underworld. Promising them their deepest desires, he draws them into a labyrinth of deception and intrigue that stretches from the city's underbelly to its towering palaces. As secrets from the shadows surge forth, Kel and Lin are confronted with pressing dilemmas: Is the quest for truth worth the sting of betrayal? Can love, once forbidden, unseat a realm? And could their discoveries be the spark that ignites a war, sending ripples of turmoil across their world?
