Publisher's Synopsis
Long before the first champions battled in the arena, a forbidden love shattered the world.
When a god falls in love with a mortal woman with rare arcane magic, their passion defies divine law. But as their love bears unexpected fruit, the Father of Gods himself intervenes with devastating consequences.
What follows is a war of divine fury that sinks entire kingdoms beneath the waves, reshapes continents, and forces the surviving gods to create a new order-the Tournament of Mages.
For centuries, the truth remained buried. Seven kingdoms became six. A god's name was erased from history. But some secrets refuse to stay hidden.
Now, as Oberian, the first Tourney Master, prepares to pass his sacred duty to his apprentice, he reveals the cataclysmic events that birthed the tournament-knowledge forbidden by the gods themselves.
Discover the tragedy that shaped a world, the lies that preserved it, and the tournament designed to prevent divine destruction from ever happening again.
The untold origin story of the Tournament of Mages series. Continue the saga with Book One: Red Mage Ascending.
