In every generation, at the rising of the Blood Moon, seven families from the isolated city of Ilvernath name a champion to compete in a tournament where they fight for their lives.

The prize? Exclusive control over a secret high magic spring, the most powerful resource in the world, believed to have long run dry.

This year, however, a scandalous book reveals the secrets of the tournament and brings new champions into the global spotlight.

The volume also provides valuable information that previous year's participants did not have access to, namely insights into the strategies, secrets, and weaknesses of the other families.

And, most importantly, it gives them the choice: to accept their fate or to rewrite their legacy.

Either way, this is a story that must be written in blood.
