The Successor to Forever

Born without a mana core, Kael Drakenhart is the scorned third son of King Magnus, mocked by nobles and disowned by his own father. When he is framed for shattering a sacred statue during the Crown Festival, Kael is stripped of his name and exiled from Arkanor, only to find the Ring of Eternis and the spirit of Caelan Veyrion, the legendary King Without a Crown. Under his thousand-year-old teacher, Kael must survive the Order of the Eternal Eye, a secret cult that wants the ring for itself.
