Rooted in the Earth: Sanctuary
The Lord of Nightfall Returns... but to What?
After years spent wrestling with his own darkness, Viktor, the Lord of Nightfall, has come home. But the kingdom of Voltaine he remembers is gone—a shadow of its former self, consumed by secrets and plagued by dangerous ambitions.
The throne is no longer held by a boyhood friend but by a man hardened by power, his every move guided by the enigmatic Ascended, a figure whose whispers reach further than the king's decrees. Their actions edge the realm closer to an unthinkable war with a Child of the Gods—a being whose wrath could reduce Voltaine to ash.
As old loyalties crumble and new threats close in, Viktor is a man nearly alone, his allies few and the dangers that stalk him multiplying by the day. Even Nightfall, his ancestral stronghold and the source of his greatest strength, feels alien and unwelcoming, its ancient stones seemingly mourning the absence of its true master.
To save his kingdom and himself, Viktor must confront not only the external forces tearing Voltaine apart but also the shadow of his own past. In a world where gods walk among mortals and power whispers promise of salvation and destruction, will the Lord of Nightfall rise to meet his destiny—or be consumed by it?
The battle for Voltaine has begun, and in the end, not even the gods may stand untouched.
