In a world where a cord on your wrist dictates your very worth, Wren Calder has nothing but bare skin—a mark of his utter insignificance. But when a brutal duel leaves him dead and buried in an unmarked grave, something ancient and terrible stirs beneath the earth. Wren's body becomes the vessel for Corvin Ashe, a legendary swordsman dead for sixty years, now reawakened with a thirst for vengeance and a sentient, bloodthirsty blade. Trapped in a boy's broken form, Corvin must navigate a world that killed him once, now with a second chance at life and a weapon that hungers for more than just blood. Can a forgotten hero, reborn in a body deemed worthless, reclaim his power and rewrite a destiny steeped in injustice, or will the past consume him and the world he now inhabits?
