The Storm Lord
WORLD SLAYER, WORLD SAVER—

Dorthar was an empire divided, a land of master race and slave people, a realm where gods and goddesses woke to walk the land, carving pathways of terrifying destruction. Into this world poised precariously on the brink of doom, Raldnor was born.

Raldnor, illegitimate son of the Storm Lord, tyrannical ruler of the land, and Ashne'e, priestess of the goddess Anackire. Raldnor, child of power raised secretly among those enslaved by the Storm Lord's conquest, trained in the arts of weaponry and the ways of power. Raldnor, who, seeking his lost heritage, would change the very fate of empires, as his thirst for vengeance fueled a war that would set the world ablaze!
