Kuro Karahashi, son of a Viscount of a distant province, wakes up without memories, with only fragments of lives he doesn't recognize or understand, after a terrible accident in the mountains. Can he protect his family and his friends, from a danger that he knows lurks in the shadows, but cannot recognize? Can he fight demons with a damaged leg? Can he overcome the tragedies about to happen? He must. For, soon the threads that drive the world will entangle around him. And, he has to make a choice. ~*~*~*~Foreword:I tried to write this a little differently from most of what I have read. The build-up maybe very slow, so I ask for your patience. The inspiration for this came from Sword and Sorcery stories, but it also leans towards more complex themes. Also, the situation and the world is very different, and I have envisioned this as a finite novel. There is definitely an ending the story is going to - even though the tale will take its own sweet time. The story is still under active development, so I hope that I can continue with the schedule. Each chapter is going to be short. I hope you like the characters and enjoy your time. Schedule: 2 Chapters per week, Wednesdays and Saturday.---All Rights Reserved.
