War has taught Auren Valen to wield his curse like a blade. The boy who once feared his power has become the weapon both kingdoms desire. Between the green silence of Sylvalis and the iron roar of Ironvale, the War of Consumption rages on-and Auren is its living symbol, a prince forged from root and steel. Yet every victory leaves the earth hollower, every wound whispers the same truth: the more he fights to save life, the more he kills what he loves.When a new enemy rises from the northern ice, Auren is sent beyond the edge of the known world.

War has taught Auren Valen to wield his curse like a blade. The boy who once feared his power has become the weapon both kingdoms desire. Between the green silence of Sylvalis and the iron roar of Ironvale, the War of Consumption rages on-and Auren is its living symbol, a prince forged from root and steel. Yet every victory leaves the earth hollower, every wound whispers the same truth: the more he fights to save life, the more he kills what he loves.
When a new enemy rises from the northern ice, Auren is sent beyond the edge of the known world. There he meets Kael Asterion, the cold-eyed ruler of the Faunir's frozen realm-a king born of frost and fire, cursed to burn from within by his own blood. Their first encounter is war: vine against ice, earth against storm. But beneath their blades, something older stirs-a recognition neither can name.
Kael fights to protect his dying people. Auren fights to prove he is not the monster the world believes him to be. Bound by a fragile truce, they march side by side into a land where gods once slept and prophecies breathe through the snow. Each night, the silence between them grows heavier than battle, carrying the warmth of something forbidden.
As the campaign deepens, Auren learns that vows and mercy cannot coexist in war. The forest's voice urges him to grow, while the steel in his hand demands blood. Kael's restraint mirrors his own-ice holding fire in place, even as it cracks. And when the truth of the Heartroot Prophecy resurfaces, both realize they are pieces of the same design: one cursed to bloom, the other doomed to freeze.
"Beneath the ice of forgotten skies, a fire will remember." - The Fourth Line of the Heartroot Prophecy
When betrayal strikes from within their armies, Auren must choose: obey his command and destroy the Ice King's realm, or follow the call of the roots that tremble beneath the frozen ground. The moment he chooses mercy, frost and vine entwine-and the first breath of warmth breaks through eternal winter.
Vines and Sacred Steel is the story of two rulers bound by war and prophecy, enemies by duty and mirrors by soul. As love takes shape between fire and frost, both must face the truth that fate's sharpest edge is not death-but the desire to live for someone forbidden.
In the stillness between blade and breath, a heart begins to thaw. And the world, for the first time in centuries, dares to dream of spring.
