My name is Xal and I live in the dims, a walled prison where my people are kept by cruel masters until we are needed to fight. One member of every family must answer The Call, for our blood bears the magic of a demonic god and all the terrible power that brings. We march to war against the Fomori — an unstoppable army of giants and their behemoths. If we do not, our families are put to death. If by some miracle I survive, I will be granted entrance to the Imperial Academy, where every noble house will vie to architect my end. They fear the rise of another dreadlord. And they are right to fear. I will pull down an empire — and that is just the beginning.

But as the world ended, his only thought was to punish the monster who had killed it. Not even his incredible power was enough to stop the World Ender. Ryun survived by pushing harder than anyone.
