Romagna, 1439.

War has come to Valbassa.
The fragile balance that once held the valley together has shattered. Alliances have turned to suspicion, loyalties have been tested, and the shadow of a greater design now moves openly across the land.
As rival forces gather and the threat of invasion becomes inevitable, Valbassa must prepare for a battle it cannot afford to lose.
At the heart of the conflict stand three men bound by fate and divided by duty:
a young soldier forced to prove himself in the crucible of war,
a lord struggling to protect his people while holding together a fragile order,
and a man of faith who begins to see that the war before him is only part of a far greater design.
But this will not be a war of glory.
On the chosen field, victory will demand more than strength.
It will demand sacrifice—of certainty, of loyalty, and of everything they once believed unbreakable.

Because when the battle is over, the valley may still stand…
but nothing within it will be the same.

And the price of honor will be written in blood.
