The Secret King

**Series Title:** *The Secret King* ### **Series Description (Long – 200+ words):** In a realm where the last true king was lost to betrayal and fire, the world has lived under the shadow of false crowns and a growing darkness. But when a humble blacksmith’s apprentice named **Kael** discovers a glowing pendant and a scroll sealed with ancient magic, his life changes forever. Whispers of prophecy reveal that Kael is no ordinary orphan—he is the last living heir to the throne of **Veridale**, hidden since birth to protect him from the tyrant sorcerer **Maldran**, who usurped the crown and seeks to plunge the world into eternal night. Now hunted by assassins, haunted by visions, and torn between loyalty and destiny, Kael must rise from the ashes of his forgotten past to unite a fractured realm. Alongside a fierce druid warrior, a loyal knight of the old guard, and allies from forgotten kingdoms, Kael begins a perilous journey to awaken the **Four Pillars of Flame**—the elemental forces that once protected the land. But power comes at a price. And the secret he carries may not just make him king… It might destroy him.
