Synopsis

Taliesin just wanted to escape his family’s blood curse and live quietly—until death (temporarily), a botched arranged marriage (involving knives), and the awakening of his lethal death glamour upended everything. Now, armed with a magical lute and a sharp wit, he navigates a world where Arthurian legend collides with fae trickery and cultivation. His ragtag band of Knights, each touched by destiny, follows him into chaos, but the path ahead is treacherous. Political schemes, divine conspiracies, and the Lady of the Lake’s prophecies press in, demanding a choice: will Taliesin bow to fate or forge his own?
