Shield and Crocus
Renegade hero First Sentinel has been fighting for fifty years. Over the years, he has failed his loved ones, buried his friends, and watched his city turned into a playground for a group of cruel oligarchs. This city, built inside the skeleton of a long-dead titan, is wracked by magical storms that warp its streets, towers and inhabitants.
After decades of failure, First Sentinel and his team finally have a chance to overthrow the oligarchs... but it means making a bargain with his oldest enemy, a gangster who has bought, schemed, and betrayed her way to the top.
If they survive the bargain, his team will have the momentum and resources they need for a full-scale revolution. But can First Sentinel tip the balance of power before the oligarchs hunt him down and crush his rebellion for good?
