Feist, begins with its first volume. This thrilling tale follows the journey of two young men, whose choices will shape the destiny of a world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the past, Garn was home to five magnificent kingdoms, until Lodavico, the ruthless King of Sandura, defeated the King of Ithrace and executed his entire family. The ruling family of Ithrace, known as the legendary Firemanes, posed a significant threat to the other kings. As a result, only four great kingdoms remain, teetering on the edge of war. However, whispers circulate that the newborn son of the last king of Ithrace has survived the battle and been taken away by the Quelli Nacosti, a secret society known for its ability to infiltrate and spy on the wealthy and powerful across Garn. Fearing that this may be true, and that the child will grow up with a vengeful heart, the four kings have placed a substantial bounty on the child's head.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeclan, a young man from the small village of Oncon, is apprenticed to a master blacksmith, where he learns the secrets of crafting the mythical king's steel. Oncon resides in the Covenant, a neutral region situated between two warring kingdoms. However, peace is shattered when slavers invade the village, seeking to capture young men to serve as soldiers for Sandura. Declan must escape and seek the assistance of Baron Daylon Dumarch, ruler of Marquensas, who may be the only one capable of defeating Lodavico, who has now formed an alliance with the fanatical Church of the One. The Church of the One, led by a charismatic priest named Kael, is spreading its extreme form of religion across the continent, imposing its beliefs on the population and ruthlessly burning unbelievers as they advance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Declan embarks on his perilous journey, he encounters various challenges and obstacles. He must navigate treacherous terrain, evade the pursuit of enemies, and confront powerful forces that threaten to destroy everything he holds dear. Along the way, he meets new allies and faces formidable foes, each with their own motivations and agendas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Firemane Saga is a tale of courage, sacrifice, and the ultimate battle for survival.
