In the fractured land of Horgara, peace is performance—and every alliance is a wager.Seven great packs rule by blood and bond, their heirs trained within the Royal College to uphold ancient laws and guard sacred legacies. But behind the formality of councils and rituals, betrayal coils like smoke.As tensions rise between the territories, old gods whisper through forgotten rites, and secrets long buried begin to bleed into the present. The Dark Ones stir. The hunts return. And beneath it all, ambition simmers in the hearts of the young—some desperate to prove loyalty, others to tear the system down.In Horgara, nothing is as it seems. And the price of truth may be higher than war.
