The moon hung high in the night sky, casting a silvery glow over the aftermath of victory. Arin Valenhart, Captain of the Ninth Valenhart Imperial Knight Order, leaned against a gnarled tree, the pain of his injuries mixing with the adrenaline that still coursed through his veins. They had successfully subdued the cult fanatics near the eastern border, a mission that had cost him more than just his pride; he could feel the warm blood seeping through the bandages wrapped tightly around his abdomen. With each passing moment, he was acutely aware of the quiet that enveloped the forest. His knights were tending to the wounded, but deep in his core, unease gnawed at him. Something felt wrong—an ominous weight hung in the air, heavy with foreboding. Exhausted yet exhilarated, he took a deep breath, drawing upon the remnants of his energy. The mission had been harrowing, but he felt a spark of pride at the thought of returning home as a hero. His father, Emperor James Ron Valenhart, would

It mingled with the lingering traces of mana that danced like wisps of smoke in the air, alive with the energy of his recent transformation. He stepped into the light, feeling the warmth envelop him, signaling a new dawn. The contrast was stark; the confines of the chamber had bestowed upon him a peace rooted in introspection, while now the world outside surged with life, movement, and the whispers of destiny awaiting him. Rael took a moment to steady his breathing, allowing the vibrant atmosphere of the royal capital to seep into his lungs. The grand city of Lunaris was a mosaic of life, with its lush gardens, majestic towers, and the ever-present symphony of activity that soon swallowed him whole.

The sun dipped low on the horizon, casting a crimson hue over the Royal Capital of Lunaris as its rays filtered through the grand arches of the palace. Rael Lunaris stood at the edge of the training yard where he had spent countless hours sharpening his skills and those of his knights.

Dawn broke over the Royal Capital of Lunaris, its warm rays illuminating the banners flapping in the morning breeze. The banners of Lunaris hung proud against the clear sky, each a testament to their kingdom's legacy and warrior spirit—a spirit that was now on the cusp of an arduous campaign. Troops from houses across Lunaris were being mobilized, prepared to face an encroaching threat that came not only from the east but from multiple corners of a world well-versed in betrayal and ambition. As Rael Lunaris stood on the castle battlements, surveying the sprawling fields below, a mixture of excitement and gravity weighed on his heart. The ground was stirring with life, armies gathering as if drawn by the ethereal pull of fate. A summary of the military arrangements had settled before him, each number echoing as a pulse in his consciousness. The total force of the Lunaris Kingdom’s military stood at about 147,000 knights; however, more than half had already deployed with King Avin to
The morning sun cast golden hues across the rugged landscape of the eastern border, where the great fortresses of the Lunaris Kingdom stood as steadfast sentinels against potential threats. Towers of stone loomed over the horizon, adorned with banners that rippled in the gentle breeze, casting momentary shadows on the ground below. Yet, for **Rael Lunaris**, the reality of his surroundings felt different today—he stood at the epicenter of a formidable army, a prince now burdened not merely with the weight of a sword but the expectations of a kingdom. Rael's thoughts drifted, piecing together the fractured remnants of his experiences. With each passing moment, he found himself growing attached to the Lunaris Kingdom in ways he hadn’t anticipated. Perhaps it stemmed from the connections he had formed in this life—Damian, Lord Bennir, Elsa, and even the cherishable memories of his mother. In stark contrast to his previous life, where he often roamed alone, dismantled from any sense of b
Nestled amidst sprawling hills and interconnected waterways, the **Caldris Coalition** emanated opulence and opportunity. Founded two centuries ago by the ambitions of seven great merchant families, it had grown into a formidable force—a burgeoning nation that ranked among the world's greatest commercial hubs. Its wealth rivaled and sometimes surpassed that of other established powers, including Lunaris, setting a dichotomy between its trading prowess and military might. Within the Coalition, blossoming wealth was its lifeblood; even though their martial capability may have faltered, their coffers overflowed, allowing them to purchase loyalty through hired swords and mercenaries.The founding families, each powerful in their own right, united their ambitions under a single banner—the **Caldris Coalition**. **House Avernor**, known for their expertise in metalwork and armaments; **House Lareth**, masters of trade and commerce; **House Gildren**, artisans of fine goods; **House Dorian**
