O knihe
In a realm torn by war, where kingdoms rise and fall like the shifting tides, there is a name whispered in fear and awe: The Bloody Handed. It is the title of a legendary warrior, a figure cloaked in mystery, whose very presence strikes terror into the hearts of kings, generals, and soldiers alike. Known for their unparalleled skill in battle and the blood-soaked path they leave in their wake, the Bloody Handed is both a hero and a monster in the eyes of the people. The story begins with Caelen, a young, orphaned boy from a small village ravaged by war. He knows nothing of his past, only that he was found on the battlefield, cradling the severed hand of a warrior. The hand, twisted and disfigured, bears a strange, ancient mark that seems to pulse with an ominous power. Caelen grows up with a quiet, haunting desire for vengeance against those who destroyed his family, but he never imagines that his destiny is tied to the very name that instills fear across the land. When a ruthless empire invades, bringing darkness and death to his homeland, Caelen is forced into the fray. His natural talent for combat becomes apparent, and with every battle, his power grows. He begins to realize that the bloodlust that drives him, the strength in his hands, is not his own-it belongs to the Bloody Handed, an ancient warrior whose soul is bound to the cursed hand Caelen possesses. As he journeys across the war-torn kingdom, seeking answers and redemption, Caelen's path becomes entangled with that of a mysterious order of mages who seek to reclaim the hand's power for their own purposes. They reveal the truth about the Bloody Handed: the warrior was once a noble knight, a hero who turned into a tyrant, consumed by the very magic that made them invincible. The hand is cursed, and whoever wields it is doomed to repeat the same cycle of violence, their soul slowly eroded by the bloodshed they cause. Caught between the pull of vengeance and the desire to rid himself of the cursed hand, Caelen must confront the horrors of his past and the darkness within himself. Along the way, he is joined by a band of outcasts: a fallen knight seeking redemption, a rogue sorceress with a vendetta, and a young healer whose powers could be the key to breaking the curse. Together, they must race against time to find a way to destroy the Bloody Handed's legacy before Caelen succumbs to its destructive grip.
