She reached out a hand to Bruce and said, "I thought I was your mate."

Bruce turned his back on her and scratched at his eyes. Silvana could feel the pressures he was facing and only wanted to help.

"I think we're stronger than the obstacles around us," Silvana said, her voice distorted by sobs.

"As much as I want to be with you, Silvana, we need to end this for your safety."

Silvana watched the rain turn the grass under her feet muddy.

"Is that really how you feel?" she asked.

But before Bruce could offer his heart's secrets to the woman he loved, crimson lightning struck between the two of them. Silvana and Bruce blasted backwards and tumbled into the mud.

Standng before them was a red, cackling spirit made of lightning. She wore wolfskin clothes and waved a hand.

Scalret lightning wolves howled, then attacked Bruce and Silvana.

Ronan is a 19-year old man training to become a Nightblade, a magical monster hunter that kills the things that go bump in the night. The problem is, Ronan suffers from an ancient curse that prevents him from accessing his magic, no matter how hard he trains or pushes his limits.

But that all changes one day when his temple is attacked by a new dark force, one so vicious and terrifying that not even the most powerful spellcasters and Nightblades are able to fend it off.

And when this monstrous army leaves behind a fragment of metal that Ronan puts into a sword, Ronan finds that his magic is unlocked through the power of the Black Hellblade.

Now, Ronan must discover what exactly a good man is to do with evil magic.

Will the gorgeously stunning Master Nightblade Maritza be enough to set Ronan on the right course? Or will the forces of evil and his curse get the best of him?

And when the dark army that gave him the extraordinary magic returns, will Ronan be ready to defeat it?

Join Ronan on his harrowing quest for strength through a brutal, cold world in this medieval, fantasy, level-up adventure.
