Ballad of the Bladesong [Dark Progression Fantasy]

Author's Note: Ballad of the Bladesong is a progression-focused, dark fantasy series with a heavy emphasis on the interplay between science and art; between war and beauty; and, between betrayal and love. As Godfrey trains under the watchful eyes of his uncles, his world is shattered when a friend discovers a mysterious door buried deep within the woods—a door that only he can open. With the echoes of a long-forgotten song guiding his steps, Godfrey embarks on a journey that will forge him into a warrior, a leader, and perhaps, the most dangerous weapon the Empire has ever witnessed.
