A Tyrant’s Whisper

The most powerful country in the world is about to have its, seemingly, impenetrable peace and stability torn away by the followers of an enigmatic figure, known simply as Preacher. He recruits the empire’s poor and disaffected; building a movement intent on tearing down a system he sees as tyrannical. Teridon Jace had always been reckless, but when that recklessness finally catches up to him; he is forced to choose between his future and saving a friend. He did not expect that this decision would change his life forever. He is shocked when his actions impress an influential man who offers him a job. While unqualified, he allows a sense of duty to overwhelm his apprehension. He tries, his best, to learn the job; while, in Capuamundi, the empire’s capital, the movement, which holds his benefactor up as the embodiment of the system’s tyranny, continues to grow. As it does, it begins to fester and metastasize, threatening to explode into a revolution that will jeopardize his mentor, the city, and, ultimately, an empire. As the burgeoning movement finds its legs, it begins to openly threaten Teridon’s benefactor. As Teridon races to find the movement’s leader, he is forced to make a decision that will reverberate throughout the empire, and, even worse, his own conscious. The fate of millions will hinge on the decisions of Teridon, who is completely unprepared for the duty that has been foisted upon him.
