In a world where celestial arenas demand blood and sacrifice, Kael Varyn toils as a corpse hauler, his life a brutal cycle of survival and quiet desperation. But when his ailing sister, Lysa, is chosen as a vessel for the dreaded opening tithe, Kael defies the divine decree, invoking an ancient, forgotten right to stand in her place. Stripped of weapons and facing a monstrous ogre in a rigged trial, Kael's only hope lies in a hidden power stirring within his veins, a power tied to a broken god and a lineage he never knew. As golden lines of energy pulse beneath his skin, he fights not just for his life, but for his sister's freedom, against an empire built on blood and sacrifice. Can a mere mortal, awakened by a forgotten rage, challenge the very heavens and survive the ascendant power now coursing through him?
