Ruxar, a land of men, mythical beasts, and gods lost to the ages. Five kingdoms blissfully ignorant to the cataclysms of war. In a world teeming with hydra, gargoyles, cerberus, and more, one savage ruler of ancient knowledge will raise the curtain to unveil deadly secrets that threaten to rain conflict among old allies. Aedan of Dragonia, in search of answers far from home, finds three allies in Nestor, a man of foresight; Magnus, a town leader, and Aloysius, a young man of confidence. Aedan and his cohort are thrust into a siege that will forge the Soldiers of Fire. Together, they will launch a hellish resistance fraught with treachery, heartbreak, death, and unforeseen potential within themselves. The mission: to alert the countries of Ruxar of a villain in plain sight before they are snuffed out by dangers hidden in the shadows.

To deliver their message of impending threats, the Soldiers of Fire will spread news, both together and apart. Through their encounters with creatures and men, they will learn the true natures of each. Along the way, acts of heroism, scenes of enslavement, moments of daring, and the destruction of towns will teach them that the torch that burns the brightest attracts the most attention. Can the Soldiers of Fire adapt to an evolving world? Can they overcome overwhelming obstacles to fulfill their mission? Or will they be discovered and destroyed before their battle can even begin?
