A Storm Like Iron

War is in my blood.

But it’s my heart that will betray me.

Born in the north from a line of warriors. Banished to the west with my father and brother. Raised to hunt the monsters that threaten our snowy mountain home.

With my wolf at my side, I will protect my family from the Blacksmiths, whose dark magic corrupts the land.

Always, I follow our most important rule: Do not go near the Blacksmith city.

But when I find a Blacksmith woman half-buried in the ice, her fingers blue, her hair like silver, and her breath a whisper in the freezing air—she invokes the light in my heart, binding my fate to hers.

All without a single word.

Do I deny my heart and leave her to perish?

Or do I risk everything to save her?

With every choice I make, betrayal shadows my fate.
