The Rotborne Oath
"He kissed me with poison, and I bloomed."
In the decaying empire of Kurosei, where martial sects are used as weapons and gods whisper through blood-soaked altars, Zeyr Vol returns from the dead.
Once a loyal alchemist and secret lover to the emperor’s daughter, Zeyr was framed, executed, and buried beneath the swamps of his caste-shamed homeland. But death was not the end. It was the beginning.
Reborn through a pact with Yasshal, the forgotten god of poison and decay, Zeyr becomes the silent storm that topples dynasties. From behind a mask of false names and sweet venom, he infiltrates rebel factions, assassin cults, and royal sanctums to rot the empire from within.
But when he discovers that Aeryn, the woman he loved—and lost—has been resurrected as the Empire’s divine weapon, his path splits: destroy everything, or try to save what little humanity they both still possess.
In this tale of slow-burn revenge, doomed love, and unrelenting tragedy, victory may cost more than death. It may cost everything that made him a man.
There are no heroes here. Only rot.
