The Mage From Avalon

Vindication served cold with ancient magic.

Aldric walks through his own gates a ghost in noble eyes, rank erased and magic gone. Assassins wait in corridors while courtiers sharpen insults, and a bride he never met becomes a political leash. He does not beg mercy; he breaks the first blade, then the hand that held it. Each attack becomes a lesson, each mocker a warning. The power they forgot he owned begins to wake beneath the ash.
