Omschrijving

The mountain fortress of the God-King casts a long shadow over the Shivering Wastes, its eternal fires a constant reminder of his divine and oppressive rule. Survival is a daily struggle, and doubt is punished by flame.

Kael is a hunter who knows only silence and submission. But when the God-King's ruthless commander, Valen, commits a brutal sacrilege in the sacred bamboo groves, the land itself sickens. Water turns foul, crops fail, and a strange blight spreads. The priests blame the people's faithlessness, demanding more obedience.

The truth is revealed to Kael by a mysterious, star-eyed creature—a Leica—bearing an impossible gift: a single, vibrant green shoot in a world of decay. This spark of life leads him to a hidden truth: an ancient power, the Heartwood of the World, slumbers beneath the lies, and the God-King is merely a man who built his throne upon its prison.

Guided by the Leicas and the fragments of old stories, Kael must rally his broken community. Their rebellion will not be fought with swords, but with seeds; not with violence, but with stewardship. They must learn to listen to the land again and reforge an ancient compact to heal what has been broken.

But the God-King and his obsessed commander have not yet finished exploiting the land, and they will burn everything to maintain their power. Kael must find the courage to stand between the fading fires of a tyrant and the awakening light of the world's heart.
