Among the dark halls of castles and the magic of mysterious forests, a young warrior learns at an early age how to use shadows to be his friend.
Mistreated by his family and sent as an insult to a faraway Queen, a young warrior discovers a patron he would never have expected—one who trains him and leads him to greatness as the Queen encourages him to walk in the shadows to learn the secrets of the magic around him. Who would have told him that he could even find love in his own darkness, within the hidden shades around him in these ancient times, where he shadow-walks to help or destroy those around the Queen and gains his own honor.
