What if you were torn from your world, thrown into a role you never asked for, and forced to protect people who mean nothing to you?
Kieran Darkholme is going to make the most of it while trying to survive.
The lives of Darkholme and four of his students take an unexpected turn when they are all summoned into another world. Kieran is thrust into a perilous journey across the floating islands of the Astralath Kingdom where he must reunite with his students and must face the consequences of their actions.
Along the way, Kieran finds love with a demi-human slave and an elven rogue. The mix of personality and passion in his relationships helps him thrive. However, his relationships with them are taboo—despised by the very people he’s supposed to protect.
Kieran’s ethics are tested when he uncovers the hidden truth behind the source of magical energy used by Astralath to power their arcane technology.
As the Corrupted Legion tightens its grip on the kingdom, Kieran faces an impossible choice: continue fighting for a kingdom built on lies, or defy his summons and forge a new path.
