In a world ruled by eleven great wizards, two orphans dream of becoming warriors.
Jason is raised as a warrior’s apprentice. He feels his master is holding him back, and when he hears news of a murder committed by a great wizard, he prepares for his coming glory.
Kale is raised by his uncle, tutored on occasion by a wandering swordsman. A standing void blights the earth close to his village, remnant of an ancient enemy. Kale dreams of using the Masamune, an ancient sword, to repel enemies from the void.
When raiders attack Kale’s village, when war erupts between the great wizards, Kale and Jason will find out if the life of a warrior matches their dreams.
