Worlds On The Precipice

Of Blood and Iron

Rettor was supposed to live a quiet life, training to become a blacksmith under his soldier-turned-smith father, Baldun. Instead, the endless crusading war between Constance and Mathias has incinerated his small village and separated his family. His father must teach him how to fight and kill, if he should hope to survive the chaos overtaking the world and reunite with his mother, Seline.

She faces trials of her own. Through her wits and fortitude, she must help her fellow villagers escape the rampaging armies. Even if success drives her further away from her son and husband.

As the father and son duo pursue her, they face an ever devolving world. Villages left in ruin, roaming knights astride armored bison, and treacherous countrymen impede their attempts at progress. Still, Baldun has escaped from the pits of this endless conflict before. And he will ensure his son’s life at any cost.

All must grapple with the source of this endless conflict, the monstrous deities that formed the world itself. The truth behind the gods will reveal the deception and division perpetrated on the citizens for centuries.

Will they be able to reunite while in the heart of this chaos? Or will their lives end in ruin like so many that came before them?

The Birth of Gods

The sequel to Of Blood and Iron, after surviving the siege at Valencia and escaping to the hidden city of Edirne, Rettor and Lyon have taken up arms against the nations that brought ruin to their lives. Now part of an unruly raiding party, the brothers are striking back. But a recent raid reveals the location of the book which sealed away the gods’ minds.

Edirne’s leaders see this as a chance to change the oft oppressed city’s fortunes. Mustering their forces, they set out to defy fate and assert their might. But what will the consequences of this unprecedented outburst be?

All the while, there are numerous outside forces threatening to undermine any progress. A vicious assassin with unknown intentions, decayed gods beckoning destruction, and a king’s acceleration towards further chaos. Will these omens bring destruction to the Edirne, or will its citizens overcome the incomprehensible odds?
