Epic Romantasy Forged in Frost, Fire and Fate
Book One of the Oathbound Series
Peace has cracked. The tribes stand divided. And the world of Glacia is beginning to rebel.
Arelia Frosinn races to find a cure for the mysterious epidemic consuming her clan, but the Tribal Council cares more for power than survival. Their answer is a twisted reading of an ancient prophecy—one that demands Arelia surrender her future in a forced marriage meant to “restore balance.”
Arelia has no intention of becoming their sacrifice.
Far to the west, Kaen Kalt has spent years running from the inferno inside him, bound in servitude to an uncle who keeps his fire caged and his future small. He has never been free… and never expected he could be.
Until Arelia’s voice breaks through the darkness and pulls him toward a fate neither of them believed was possible.
Two souls shaped by opposite elements.
One prophecy binding them together.
And a world on the brink of shattering.
Arelia Frosinn
A healer with a mind of ice and a heart she refuses to trust. Arelia carries a lifelong fear of being a burden, driving her to fight alone—even when it breaks her. But as her magic awakens and the prophecy tightens around her, the one person she resists most may be the only one who can help her save her world.
Kaen Kalt
Kaen Kalt is the fireborn heir raised in chains—shaped from childhood into a weapon and bound him with a Soul Oath he cannot break. Scarred by the blue fire that flares with his emotions and haunted by the comrades he lost, Kaen survives as the legendary Everflame the world reveres but never truly sees. Disciplined, loyal, and carrying a quiet hunger for freedom, he finds his first spark of hope in Arelia, whose frost steadies the fire that has always threatened to consume him.

Not all prophecies were meant to be whole.
What remains of Glacia’s oldest prophecy exists only in fragments—hidden, scattered, and deliberately incomplete.
Some truths were sealed away for a reason.
