NOW PRESENTING...
WARMANE.

*recommended to read in black screen.

THEY SAY THAT BEFORE YOU EMBARK ON A JOURNEY OF REVENGE, you must first dig two graves; one for your mark, and one for yourself. Because in the end, you will no longer be the same person you once were... such hatred, such loathing. They change a person at their very core and there is no longer the happy, smiling face you once knew.

There is just rage.

Endless rage.

Hardened lines of the face. Oceans of torrential grief in their eyes which they cannot help but to desperately flail and inevitably drown in. An icy winter raging in the heart and soul, consuming everything they once were and changing it into something else entirely. A new season. A new landscape. A new person.

THEY SAY OUR FIRST TEACHER IS OUR OWN HEART, and it is in the heart where you will find the acceptance — it is not even close to forgiveness — but acceptance of the deeds of others. It is in the heart you will find acknowledgment that what others do may be evil, but you will remain true. It is in the heart where you will find the ability and strength to overcome your self-tormenting need for vengeance.

Because vengeance done on another's behalf, while noble, will still destroy you. Even as you watch yourself in this vicious downward spiral... you just can't stop yourself, can you?

You just can't stop.

Nothing is letting you stop.

Until there's a decision. Vengeance for your dearly departed, or salvation for your beloved. How can someone choose? How can you abandon what has been pushing you forward? How can you find a new purpose if not for your revenge and their vengeance? Alas, one must choose.

AND THEN A CHOICE IS MADE.

THE ONCE AND FUTURE KING!

Bradley James as
ERYK WARMANE.

THE CROWN PRINCE OF RIVIA
Eldest heir in a long-fabled family line of warmongering men and women, this man is no stranger to conflict and danger. In fact, he seeks it out like a lion hunting a gazelle from the tall grass. He is almost always ruled by emotion and hot-headed to the core. His wrath, once awakened, knows no bounds and he has been drawn from his little corner of the world. He is not pleased.

"   You do not know my wrath,
Geralt. Nor do you want to.   "

AND HIS SWORN PROTECTOR!

Henry Cavill as
GERALT OF RIVIA.

THE WHITE WOLF OF KAER MORHEN
He has lived many years; seen many things, done many adventures, encountered all types of people. But the Wolf has never encountered a beast nor monster quite like this Lion. He sympathizes with the loss which leaves him aching, but vulnerable. And then he vows to watch the prince's back and suddenly two loners are thrown together, like it's destiny.

"   I know your heart, though.   "

Blood is spilt while holding keys to the throne,
Born again but it's too late to atone.
No mercy from the edge of the blade,
Dare escape and learn the price to be paid.
Let the water flow with shades of red now,
Arrows black out all the light (light),
Death is riding into town with armor;
They've come to grant you your rights.

Hail to the King,
Hail to The One.
Kneel to The Crown,
Stand in the sun.
Hail to the King!

(Avenged Sevenfold)

AUTHOR'S NOTE
& DISCLAIMER.
Are you guys ready for the gay that is about to commence? So much gay... also, yes, "Hail to the King" is Eryk's badass theme song, especially once he becomes king.

I do not claim to own any characters, events, locations, items, history or lore that appears in the novels written by Andrzej Sapkowski; nor any such similar things that appear in Netflix's show, The Witcher. All rights belong to their respective owners. The only things I claim to own are any characters which are not from Sapkowski (such as Eryk) and my original plot.

WARNINGS..
Further inside, you'll encounter canon-typical violence, foul language, gore and bloodshed. Scenes of a sexual nature will more than likely be written (seeing as how casual it is in the novels, I'm going to try and maintain some similar style to Sapkowski's) though warnings can be provided in-chapter for such instances if I decide to follow through on this. These warnings are able to be updated and changed, always. Keep in mind that if you're too young to handle these topics, or too immature, or easily offended — then this book is not for you. You've been advised.

I love you guys. 💙 You all constantly hype me up, inspire me, and keep me going with fuel for my books. Y'all are great. This is the first time in a couple years I've gotten pretty serious about writing and getting back into it so hopefully this time, I can finish strong.

Also have you seen our lovely cover? Jae made it and I could not be more in love! It's gorgeous and deserving of praise and admiration.
