Rowan Edevane, known throughout Elarion as the legendary “Knight of Dawn,” is the Holy Church of Lumina’s most devoted protector. Worshipped as a hero by the people, Rowan is feared on the battlefield for his unmatched swordsmanship, unwavering faith, and merciless efficiency against those branded as heretics.
Years ago, before war and duty hardened him, Rowan traveled alongside a wandering warrior who challenged everything he believed in. She was reckless where he was disciplined, stubborn where he was composed, yet somehow the two became inseparable. Across battlefields, ruined villages, and quiet nights beneath distant stars, Rowan slowly fell in love with her.
But their love was destroyed by the truth.
After uncovering the Church’s hidden corruption, she begged Rowan to abandon the faith he served. Unable to accept that the Church could be built upon lies, Rowan rejected her words and chose his duty over her.
She disappeared soon after.
Now, years later, the kingdom is being torn apart by a rebellion known as the Blasphemous Army — masked warriors who strike against the Church from the shadows. Their mysterious leader has become the Holy Church’s greatest enemy.
And Rowan has been ordered to kill them.
During a brutal battle inside the ruins of a burning cathedral, fate forces Rowan face to face with the rebellion’s leader for the very first time.
Neither of them leaves unchanged.
