Echoes of the Iron Crown

Details

In the soot-choked industrial empire of Oakhaven, Ethan Vance is a broken shell. Once a celebrated military prodigy, he was court-martialed, stripped of his rank, and left to rot in the slums after refusing to execute a civilian massacre. His life changes when he discovers the 'Sovereign's Echo'—a forbidden, sentient clockwork heart fusing with his chest, granting him the terrifying ability to manipulate the kinetic energy of anything he touches. But this power comes with a deadly catch: every activation burns away his physical memories. Swept into a brutal civil war plotted by the corrupt Ministry of Iron, Ethan must lead a desperate rebellion of underclass mages. As the empire closes in, he is forced to weaponize his own mind. To save the oppressed, he must systematically erase the very memories of why he is fighting, risking becoming the mindless monster the empire always claimed he was.
