City of Desire [Kingdom Building]

Remus, exiled by his scheming family, arrives in Greltheaven—a fledgling border city teeming with both peril and promise. Though he’d prefer the empire’s safety, forging his own path, refusal means mediocrity, and that’s a fate he won’t accept. With vengeance simmering beneath his ambition, he seizes control of a struggling brothel, determined to transform it into the heart of a thriving empire. But Greltheaven is a city of cutthroat politics, lurking monsters, and warring factions. Every alliance has a price, every opportunity a blade hidden in its shadow. Remus must navigate treachery, cultivate power, and outmaneuver enemies who would see his dreams crumble—all while the city itself trembles on the brink of chaos. Can he build an empire from the ashes of his disgrace, or will Greltheaven consume him first?
