At the dawn of time, almighty dragons created Arret. But when the creators ascended to the heavens, they left behind a world ripe for a great and terrible game…
For five hundred years, the races of Arret have clung to a single, sacred command: Preserve the Harmony. But peace is a fragile illusion. Behind the closed doors of temples and palaces, an ancient, forgotten shadow is beginning to stir, pulling the strings of rulers, priests, and heroes like pawns on a giant chessboard.
Now, as the fragile balance of the world begins to fracture, a ruthless struggle for power ignites. In a court ruled by cold ambition and religious zealotry, mortals must make deadly gambles just to survive. But when you are playing against an unseen god of discord, even the most brilliant move can lead straight to the slaughter.
In this grimdark fantasy epic, there are no pure heroes. Only morally grey players in a cruel game where the price of losing is death.
Enter a world of divine manipulation, betrayal, and high-stakes intrigue. Find out who survives in the gripping first installment of The Manuscript of Arret series.
