CURSED BLOODLINES

<p><strong>When the plague tore through the island the king sealed the gates and hope seemed lost. Years later the court returns to a hollowed kingdom and finds a boy named Roland - fierce raw and unmoored - who will not be left behind. Raised at court beside a spoiled prince Roland trains until steel and skill make him more than a foundling: he becomes the kingdom's hinge. A comet falls powers awaken brothers become enemies and a throne is forged in betrayal and blood. Two kings die their magic buried and sealed - until centuries later the past claws back into the present. A descendant named Ronin inherits more than lineage: he inherits a war. Ancient spirits bind to living men old vows ignite anew and a crown assembled from fallen fragments promises resurrection and ruin. This is a story of inheritance exile and the brutal cost of destiny - where the only way to end a war is to become the battle itself.</strong></p>
