The slaving empire of mages is no more, thanks to the sacrifice of tens of thousands of the System's most faithful. Not even the ever-present threat of monsters could bring the followers of the faith together in such a determined crusade.
Troth Harmer is one such slave-mage who is fleeing from this crusade. Not because he wants to, no, but because his master left him one final mission: protect the rock. A perfectly normal, unremarkably ordinary piece of stone you could find pretty much anywhere.
It is for this plain old rock that he agreed to burn out the magic he spent more than a decade to cultivate, erased all the Skills and Features of his System-given Class, and came knocking on the very door of the people he once called enemy.
It will not be easy for the former slave and Knight-Magus Squire. He will have to hide among those he once killed on the battlefield, adopting their faith and their culture to do so. He will have to put down the steel of the knight for the chitin of the adventurer, and learn how to hunt monsters in the most cost-effective manner possible. And he will have to tinker with a new kind of magic, one that relies more on carving his will into sigils than on the mana channels he burnt out.
But if Troth has one thing going for him, it is his never-say-die attitude. No matter the pain, no matter the obstacles or the odds, he will keep pushing forward to see his mission through. Will that be enough to fulfill his master’s last wish or will he end up like the rest of his kind? Read the Barbarian Enchanter to find out!
