The created world of Arcadia is a lush, magic-rich paradise ruled by three Gods. Everyone here is born with magic, but only five percent of the world's two billion inhabitants can wield enough power to become Arc Wardens. The rest toil in servitude, doomed to be cannon fodder whenever a Demon Lord rises at the head of an army of monsters. Into this rigid world steps Drake Long, an American reborn with an appreciation for Balance, a ridiculously durable body, and an unshakable set of morals. Tasked by the Goddess of Life to break the corruption of Arcadia’s stagnating magical elites, Drake embraces a new path, as the world’s first Monk and sets out to prove that true power comes from within, not from privileged bloodlines. Only time will tell how much his fists, and his convictions, can reshape Arcadia’s fate.
