A Twisted Tale of Betrayal and Vengeful Resurrection

"All the king’s horses and all the king’s men… couldn’t put him together again."

But what if they were never given the chance?

King Allister is a good king, a gentle king. His body, a fragile vessel of pearlescent shell, is seen by his subjects as a weakness. To his most trusted advisor, the ruthless Lord Volkov, it is an opportunity.

A calculated push. A thousand-foot fall. A body that shatters on the cobblestones.

The act of murder was a simple betrayal. The true betrayal was the kingdom that watched him fall, the people who covered their eyes and turned away, and the king’s men who were ordered to stand down and let him lie broken.

But in the cold, deep darkness of the chasm where his remains were discarded, an ancient power stirs. The Telluric Will, the consciousness of the stone itself, offers the shattered king a bargain. It will mend his broken body with seams of molten gold, forge his sorrow into a weapon, and replace his mercy with a cold, unyielding purpose.

The "Cracked King" rises, no longer a gentle ruler, but a supernatural force of judgment. He is a god of vengeance, and his memory is perfect. The kingdom that let him break will now be broken in return.

This is not the nursery rhyme you remember.
