THE BARON OF THE COTTON FIELD
In a society where the strongest, bravest, and most brutal beings rose to wealth and power, everything they had came with a price. That price was loyalty: eternal service, obedience, and slavery to the one and only lord over the lords—the supreme ruler known as the Overlord.
The barons served him faithfully and dared not defy his will. They governed their towns on his behalf, maintaining order in exchange for privilege and survival. But everything changed when a new baron took charge of an independent town—Goshen, known for its flourishing cotton fields. Unlike the others, this town was not under the Overlord's control.
The vibrant town and its cotton field became prey to the Overlord’s jealousy.
The Overlord demanded control of the cotton fields. But the baron refused him.
Enraged by the rejection, the Overlord unleashed his wrath. He slaughtered everyone in the town, burned the land to the ground, and reduced it to a lifeless ghost town.
By some miracle, the baron’s son, Widen Sawyer, survived the massacre.
He was taken in by an evil and power-hungry baroness from another town, who masked his identity and raised him as her own—replacing him with her dead son.
But not even time and comfort could erase the pain of what was taken from Widen. He burned with one mission, and one thing kept him going: to take revenge on the Overlord for the pain and death of his loved ones.
Widen vowed to destroy him.
