After seven years in the wilderness of exile, he returns to Varynth only to find a land choked by the Sanctum's dogma. Here, magic is a birthright for the elite and a death sentence for the poor. When Kaien witnesses the attempted execution of Ryn, a child wielding the forbidden duality of life and death, his path of penance finally finds its purpose. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNow a fugitive from the very throne he helped secure, Kaien must lead a ragtag rebellion through a landscape of shifting loyalties and ancient ghosts. But the greatest threat isn't the steel of the Royal Guard; it's the woman holding the hilt. Queen Elyra, the woman Kaien once loved, is determined to strip humanity of its messy free will to ensure a perfect, sterile order. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs magic begins to fracture and the world itself starts to bleed, Kaien faces a devastating choice: stay his hand for the love of a tyrant, or break the empire to save its soul. In the war for Varynth, every victory carries a cost, and the blade that weeps for the fallen may be the only thing left to end the cycle of tyranny.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dimitri Scoville\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798188515577\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/22\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 242\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.61d","brand":"Dimitri Scoville","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50665952051455,"sku":"9798188515577","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-weeping-blade-dimitri-scoville-9798188515577","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
