Roll over and die, or become so strong nothing can stop him.
Cast into a brutal military camp by his once loving master, Mateo feels like the last six wonderful years of his life have been a lie. With the mysteries surrounding him growing, Mateo knows that his only option is becoming one of the supernaturally powerful Duelists and growing in power until he can take his fate into his own hands.
That plan is thwarted from the beginning when he gets stuck with the lowest ranked Root Card against his will, ensuring that his growth as a Duelist will always be excruciatingly slow. To make matters worse, the camp he has been thrown into is completely cutthroat and survival isn’t guaranteed by a long shot.
Saddled with two other kids that he has never met before and a crow spirit bound to him by an ethereal chain, Mateo will need every ounce of courage, resilience, and mental acuity he can muster if he wants to make it out of the training camp alive.
The series

With the lowest-ranked Root Card in hand, Mateo must navigate a world where power is earned, not given, and survival demands more than just strength—it requires strategy, cunning, and the will to endure.
