summary:

Whrain Ashland is a sell sword in a time of raging war and dying magic. Seemingly destined to be the notorious orphaned hero, he turns his back on his past and all dreams of glory.

Instead he becomes what everyone expects him to be… a monster. Ruthless, sadistic and utterly conscienceless, he is the perfect tool.

Traveling with his very own band of mercenaries, he lives by a single rule: Get the job done. Move on to the next.

Having an unbelievably high success rate and the reputation of staying loyal to his current employer whatsoever, Whrain soon attracts the attention of a very desperate princess.

In exchange for a fortune, Whrain and his comrades are expected to break into the most feared prison of the known world and smuggle a group of aristocrats into an occupied city. Looking at it, the payment doesn’t align with the terms, but if that’s the price of freedom, so be it.

Just one last job, right?

But when the real motives of his client are revealed, and his past catches up to him, Whrain faces the bitter truth: He has more to lose than to gain in this bargain.

  Set in medieval times, where only an ember of magic is left, and new technologies are on the rise, we follow Whrains story through his early years as an orphan, novice and later on assassin, before he becomes the leader of the countries most infamous group of mercenaries. The Kings Shadows.        

I life for this headcanon!

Do you ever look at all the different stories you’ve written and see similar themes within them and then you start wondering what that means about you?
