King of Knives

“In Varentis, trust is a luxury. Mercy is a weakness. And a knife solves more problems than gold ever could.” Darian Valcoris once had a name that mattered. Now he’s just another body in the pit, bleeding for coin, surrounded by criminals, watched by nobles who forgot his face. Broken, betrayed, and one mistake from death, Darian claws his way through the underworld of Varentis, a mountain metropolis built on secrets, steel, and blood, which serves as one of the three Palatinates of the Empire. But Darian isn’t here to survive. He’s here to take everything. From the gutters to the noble quarter, he’ll rise, through pit fights, heists, street wars, and whispered conspiracies. Alongside a crew of dangerous misfits, Darian plays a game that no one expects him to win. Because they don’t know who he's willing to become. Welcome to the Empire of Newfyre.
