In the world of Altheris, a beautiful world yet war-torn land where savage beasts dominate every corner, the Empire reigns supreme, oppressing the people with an iron fist. Amid the devastation, a boy named Caelum could only cry as he watched his mother murdered by Imperial soldiers. His helplessness in that moment shattered him, leaving a wound that would never heal—and planting the seed of vengeance that would consume his life. Years later, Caelum returns as a man forged by pain and relentless training. With a body as strong as steel and a mind as sharp as a blade, he chooses to join the rebel forces—not for justice, but for one purpose: to destroy the Empire that took everything from him. But his path of vengeance is anything but easy. Altheris is not just a battlefield for humans but a land teeming with monstrous creatures and diverse races scattered across its regions. Meanwhile, the Empire employs its military might and cunning politics to maintain its grip on power. Amid the chaos, Caelum must face not only his enemies but also himself, as each battle chips away at the remnants of his humanity, slowly turning him into the very monster he despises. As blood flows and corpses pile up on the battlefield, Caelum realizes that vengeance comes at an immeasurable cost. Will he be willing to pay that price to destroy the Empire? Or will he drown in hatred, becoming a tyrant even worse than his foes?
