Firebrand

In a world where the supernatural hides from humanity behind a veil, mages control everything from the shadows, and monsters run rampant, Outcasts, beings rejected by both the human and supernatural worlds with the ability to nullify magic, stand alone as the last line of defense against the dark forces that threaten a world they no longer belong in. Constantine St. John, an average college student, has his life turned inside out when he awakens as an Outcast on his 21st birthday. Now, he has to navigate this new world that despises him and his kind. Together with his new allies, the assassin Kento Salvatore and the firebrand Jane Winchester, they undertake a perilous journey to Eden, the City of Origin, to take back control of their fate and, maybe, give the Outcasts a place to belong in.

War began. We fought, lost, and won again and again until the world found its peace again, ruled by us, dārys (Men). But we also came from a curse, darkness. It was still within us, and it took over. That was the start of a new war, the war of dārys, which divided us. Not only us but the world, was divided into six dāerysion (Kingdoms) with six dāerys kings. The first dāerys was King Aelon Stormheart. He ruled over Valyrtia. The second was King Roderic Ironhelm. He ruled over Ardanthia. The third was King Thelian Brightstar. He ruled over Eldoria. The fourth was King Brynden Seaforge. He ruled over Thalassar. The fifth was King Valarian Firebrand. He ruled over Dracoria. And the sixth was King Elric Sunsworn. He ruled over Vaeloria. For many years, the world was peaceful. But darkness remained in the hearts of the dārys. Every king desired power for themselves. They led us into war, using us as their pawns. Then, a decade ago, a legend arose. It spoke of a boy who would unite all six kingdoms and bring us dārys together once more.
