Bloodguard

In the deceit-laden realm of the Kingdom of Arrow, truth is as elusive as a shadow at dusk. Leith of Grey arrived in these lands with a simple, desperate plan: to spill blood in the gladiator arenas—grueling battles of survival for the amusement of the masses—and fill his pockets with enough gold to rescue his dying sister. He believed he had nothing else to surrender. He discovered his belief was a tragic miscalculation. They stripped him of his dreams, his liberty, and stripped him down to mere flesh and bone. What remains is a warrior, his body a tapestry of scars, each one a testament to battles won and a day's life purchased in blood. Amidst this brutal existence, Leith's path crosses with Maeve, an elven princess who personifies all he loathes, a symbol of the world that has crushed him. Yet, this same princess extends an offer as irresistible as it is unexpected: the opportunity to contend for the title of Bloodguard, the honor that could liberate him. However, even the flicker of hope comes at a steep price in a kingdom where deception reigns supreme. And Leith's quest for vengeance? It's a prize that demands an even higher cost, in a game where every truth conceals a dagger.
