"They wanted to eliminate the prince.
In the end, they awakened the monster within him."
Lucas Ashir Ingriss, second prince of the kingdom of Ingrissia, bears a name synonymous with glory. His ancestor, Raiden Ingriss, was one of the Five Heroes who sealed Yshvar, the Dark Lord, saving the world at the cost of his own sacrifice.
But the past is the past, and House Ingriss is no longer as dominant as it once was.
Gifted with an exceptional talent
for fighting and swordsmanship, and a formidable intellect, Lucas is a caring and thoughtful prince.
Yet he has a dream burning inside him: he dreams of rebuilding "the once great empire of Ingrissia", a once dominant and feared power across the continent.
Even if it meant destroying the established order.
He'll do anything to fulfill his dream.
His quest for power takes him into the bloody corridors of politics, where every smile conceals a dagger. But Lucas, knowing all this, moves forward without turning away from his goal.
Yet a forgotten threat is preparing to resurface.
The seal of the Five Heroes is breaking.
Yshvar and the darkness... what everyone had forgotten and only read about in books telling legends, were preparing their return.
When Lucas goes to the royal academy, he begins to gather powerful and loyal allies for his quest.
But some people, seeing him as a threat to their power, began plotting against him.
During an expedition, Lucas was ambushed and left for dead in the most dangerous place on the continent: the legendary Black Forest.
But Lucas isn't dead.
He'll be back.
Different.
Unpredictable.
