Ritter_Bruder

Konrad von Falkenstein, the youngest son of a noble house, bears the Blessing of the Scholar—a gift of intellect and insight dismissed in a world ruled by swords and strength. Overshadowed by his warrior brothers and scorned by his father, Konrad’s future seems bleak, confined to the margins of a violent, unforgiving land.

Everything changes when an ancient text found in a cursed dungeon grants Konrad a window into the life of one of history’s greatest strategists. As he relives the memories and brilliance of this legendary figure, Konrad gains tactical prowess and a newfound sense of purpose. For the first time, he glimpses the possibility of carving out a destiny beyond his family’s expectations.

But the book is just the beginning. Hidden in ruins and dungeons are more relics of the past, each containing the knowledge and essence of legendary leaders, inventors, and visionaries. As Konrad uncovers them, his mind sharpens and his ambition grows. Yet, with every text he absorbs, the weight of these ancient lives presses against his own, threatening to blur the line between who he is and who they were.
