Legends are a mix of truths and untruths, concealing secrets within their folds. Here lies the tale of Indra, a man who walked the path of light and shadow. Many have told stories about him: they say his voice is like a nightingale, enchanting the thousand eyes in the court of the seven heavens; they claim his skill in sword and magic is unmatched, having defeated a wise man—a member of the most dangerous organization in the world—in single combat; there are even whispers of him slaying a god to liberate a thousand slaves. Amidst all these stories, only Indra's own words unveil an authentic chronicle. Now, listen closely. The empire's esteemed First Sword, Arshia, protector of the God-Emperor, has agreed to recount Indra’s saga in exchange for his surrender. Within these pages, you will witness his violent days as a youth in the city of Ambar, his scholarly pursuits at the university, his awe-inspiring adventures on the continent, and his rise as the revolutionary leader of the Asuras.
