Forged in Devotion

Zandro Tarella, a young boy full of curiosity, is ready for his first day at school. However, school would be the last concern to a boy whose whole life has been eyed by the mighty forces of Atua and Queen Salience.

Though he tries to be brave, his struggles push him to the limit. Kidnapping, death, execution, betrayal-how much can one boy take?

Though his hope lies in the care of two unlikely allies, they too are afflicted and this turmoil may bring about the worst for each of them, sealing their wayward emotions behind a stoicism that would hide away their Vespanity forever.

Such is the life of a guard in the services of Atua.
