Sixty years after his murder, the realm's greatest swordsman awakens inside Kael, a disgraced cadet whose family faces ruin. Hidden beneath his threadbare cloak is the Soul-Eater, an ancient, broken blade that hungers for blood and vengeance. To protect his sister from a ruthless loan shark and hide from the Lord Marshal who betrayed him, Kael must play the fool, enduring humiliation while a lethal master bides his time. He walks a razor's edge, feigning weakness in a world where power is everything, all while his ancient enemy watches from the shadows. But how long can a cursed blade, starved for blood, remain silent?
