“F*ck this shit!” Yeonjun’s blade cleaved through the dense undergrowth, leaves whipping against his scarred face. His sword, heavy with old blood, now clogged with forest greenery. Lost from his army in the brutal inter-kingdom war, the ruthless prince of Saesori trudged through unfamiliar terrain. “Where the f*ck even am I…” he muttered, fingers tangling in dark hair. Hours later, the trees broke. A majestic castle of white and silvery blue rose from the ruins of Imeria. Yeonjun stopped, sharp eyes scanning the vine-choked walls and towering archways. It was abandoned, yet imposing. Two thoughts struck the cruel warrior: the desolation of the place, and the lingering question of who—or what—still claimed it.
