Corveth
1
Corveth is a mercenary who lives for survival. Cold, calculating, and indifferent, he has no use for power or wealth. His world is one of ruthlessness, where loyalty is bought and sold, and the only thing that matters is who can survive the longest. A man of few words, he’s as distant as he is dangerous. He’s seen empires fall and people rise only to fall again, and none of it matters to him. But there is one thing that piques his interest — immortality.
The planet once belonged to a royal family whose bloodline was believed to possess the key to true longevity. The princess, now exiled and powerless, seeks to reclaim her throne. She promises Corveth something that could change his life forever: the ancient ritual of eternal life.
Corveth, a man who trusts no one and desires nothing but survival, initially scoffs at the idea. The princess, to him, is just a lost cause — powerless, exiled, a distant memory of a fallen empire. But she tells him of the ritual that only her bloodline can perform — a rite tied to the throne itself, a chance for those who undergo it to live far beyond normal lifespans. The elite of the world may have found ways to extend their lives through technology and magic, but the royal bloodline holds the true key. The promise of eternity is far too tempting for Corveth to ignore.
Although initially skeptical, Corveth soon realizes the weight of what she offers. If he helps her reclaim the throne, he will not only secure his survival for years to come but also gain access to a power beyond wealth or politics — the power of time itself. The princess isn’t offering him riches or control. She’s offering him a future — one where he can live longer, achieve more, and hold sway over the future in ways he’s never imagined. But that future is not free, and Corveth is not a man who acts without considering the cost.
But even as the princess’s power grows, Corveth remains cold, calculating, and unwilling to reveal anything about his own heart.
