Silas Wilder may have been born into the royal family, but he has no interest in their eternal war. Silas is more concerned with the issues at home: homelessness, disease and poverty ravage the city while those in charge spend their time planning battles in faraway lands. A rising star on the streets, Silas is known as the ‘Champion of the Slums’, striving to provide a decent life, and a purpose, for those who have none.
As with all those born into the eternal war, he cannot escape his destiny for long. After a chance encounter with a mysterious figure points him towards an ancient text, Silas finds himself dragged into a role he is tragically underprepared for. Now, it's up to him to rise to the occasion and claim his true position in life - or perish.
