Roland Arnow is the last of his breed. A witch hunter of a purged order fighting for a cause long lost, he has evaded capture and death more times than he can count. Yet when the assassination of sorcerer Orrin Skye brings his actions to the attention of king and kingdom, it will take all his wits and experience to evade the executioner's noose. With few allies and the royal investigators closing in, nowhere remains safe for the fugitive, his every step dogged by relentless pursuit. Prudence would suggest he flee the nation, to save his life and live out his years in obscurity, yet he cannot do so while one missive remains, a quest of great import set long before the orders fall. Even now, in dire peril, honor demands he see the task through, yet with royal forces drawing near, time may very well be running out.  The story is a bit of a slow burn, heavy on dialogue, and more in the vein of traditional fantasy novels. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated, whether in regard to plot, pacing, characters, grammar, or any other facets of the story. My aim will be to release new chapters every weekend. Be sure to follow to stay on top of all the newest updates! Thank you for reading, and hope you enjoy!
