Kal, a simple fisherman, will begin a journey that will change his life at the request of his king. Julen, a powerful barbarian from the Steel Hills, seeks his destiny and will begin a spiritual journey he could never have imagined when he left his home in the hills. Together, these four men will form a bond of friendship that will guide them through the coming storm.
They will become known collectively as the Hawks. This is their tale. What challenges await? What is the Emperor's dark secret? Read and find out, as the Hawks take flight.
