The Shardboard

In a world ruled by fractured city-states and rival factions, strength is the only currency that matters. At the age of sixteen, every orphan of Graythorne faces the same fate: be tested, be measured, and be cast into the role society assigns. For Kael, who has lived powerless all his life, that should have meant obscurity. Until the storm. A forgotten chest. A relic that should never have been touched. A whisper older than kingdoms itself, now bound to his very flesh. Marked by a power outlawed for centuries, Kael finds himself thrust into a path of peril and promise. The Relic Bond grows with him—whispering riddles, unlocking hidden strength, but demanding a price he does not yet understand. Hunted by shadow factions. Distrusted by his peers. Pitted against rivals who will kill to rise higher. Kael must walk the razor’s edge between survival and discovery, between destiny and damnation. For the relic has chosen him—and it will not let go. A forgotten relic chose him. Now the world will fear him.
