The Guardian of Antiquity

Adrian Vale was once the heir of the prestigious Vale Family, one of the legendary Eight Great Families. His father died protecting the priceless national treasure, the Royal Seal, leaving Adrian framed by his stepmother Mara Voss and the counterfeit artifact syndicate known as The Antiquity Circle. His family was destroyed, and Adrian was cast out from his ancestral order. At his darkest moment, he was saved by Master Jade Quinn, the last successor of the ancient appraisal lineage.
