When their elven brethren betrayed her people, one Dark Elf Chief will do whatever it takes to save her people—even if it means trusting Orcs.

In a world where firearms and sorcery coexist, two great powers stand in opposition: the Kingdom of Orcsen—an alliance of magical races led by the so-called “savage” orcs—and Elfland, a seemingly peaceful realm of beautiful white elves.

But beneath Elfland's serene facade lies a grim truth. The dark elves, once part of the elven homeland, are being systematically purged. Fleeing for her life and on the verge of death, dark elf clan leader Dinerúth is rescued by none other than Gustav, king of Orcsen.

Their fateful encounter sets off a chain of events that will shake the foundations of both nations—and rewrite the very history of their world.
