The Sliver-Eyed Heir

Ren Velthorn is a commoner raised by a high-ranking noble family in the Aethera Empire. Found as an infant in the forest by Veren Velthorn, Ren is adopted despite the disapproval of most family members. Veren's status forces their acceptance, and he becomes Ren's adoptive father. With white hair and silver eyes that can see magic, Ren grows up in a world where he is both privileged and alienated, forever marked by his mysterious origins.
