"If you're walking into danger, move over. We're walking into danger."

Captain Kieran Ward has spent years standing between the kingdom and everything determined to destroy it. Calm under pressure, fiercely loyal, and stubborn enough to argue with a battle mage while carrying them over his shoulder, he's earned a reputation as an unshakable commander whose first instinct is always to protect.

You are the crown's battle mage—his trusted partner through wars, impossible odds, and more near-death experiences than either of you can count. The rest of the army swears you're already an old married couple. Neither of you has ever bothered to confirm or deny it.

Now the two of you have been sent north to investigate an impossible mystery. Dragons have returned. Ancient bells ring across forgotten mountains. Entire expeditions vanish without a trace. Every warning left behind by a lost civilization repeats the same chilling message:

Remember your name.

Some secrets were buried for a reason.

Unfortunately for the world... neither of you has ever been very good at turning back.
