A forgotten legend. A shattered destiny. An epic quest at the edge of ancient myths and legends.

Athanor, Celtic guardian of the sacred mountains of Alisanos, once lived in peace-honored by his people and loved by Anna, his twin flame.

But one terrible night, he failed in his duty, and everything that gave meaning to his life was torn away... As the sanctuary they were sworn to protect was desecrated by strangers from distant lands, Anna vanished under tragic circumstances.

Ultimate sacrilege: amid the chaos, a mythical creature-the Thunder-Eagle-whose existence was unknown even to his people, was taken away.

From that moment on, only one thing remained within his soul: the echo of a love stronger than death itself... and stronger than the gods. Haunted by loss and consumed by guilt, Athanor sets out on a quest for vengeance-but also for redemption.

An odyssey that will lead him far from his homeland, to the ends of the ancient world and the very borders of the invisible, where he must face dangers far more terrifying than the demons that haunt his heart.
