The Hollow Land

In a world where ancient songs speak of heroes and hidden realms, a weary narrator recalls a place called the Hollow Land—an elusive sanctuary of roses, cool waves and whispering breezes that haunts his memory. He tells of his lineage in the House of the Lilies, of a lost love glimpsed there, and of the restless longing that drives him to search for this forgotten haven.

The peace of his family is shattered when Lady Swanhilda, a fierce widow, humiliates Florian's brother Amald during a royal procession, sparking a bitter feud between the Lilies and the house of Red Harald. Fueled by shame and a promise of vengeance, Florian is drawn into a dangerous game of swords and secret alliances, his fate intertwined with a mysterious figure named Arnald who appears in a midnight dream.
