Once the terrifying Marshal of the Celestial River Legion, Asterion is brutally tortured on the divine execution dais, his soul shattered by the Godbreaker Hammer. He is falsely accused by the devious Moon Goddess, Selene—who fakes her tears to hide her venom—and the power-hungry Zeus. Despite the agonizing pain and the laughter of the gods, Asterion refuses to plead guilty to a crime he never committed. Cast down and broken, the fallen War God swears a blood oath: when he rises from the ashes, both the manipulative goddess and the hypocritical King of Olympus will pay for their betrayal in blood.
