The Unnamed Story (Book)

The Unnamed Story is the first book of the Unnamed Saga, following would-be knight of the Temple, Rainer, and his captive, the brash and pitiless Caspian.
== Setting ==
The Unnamed Story takes place in the Kingdom of Kyravelle, a collection of provinces united under the Royal House of Forstat. Though largely provincial and deeply multicultural, seated at the center of all trade routes throughout the continent, Kyravelle is ruled as much by crime and plague as it is ruled by the dying King Tarrant. For some, the Road to All Nations leads to riches and success...but many of those who find their wealth are bandits and thugs, preying on hopeful merchants and pilgrims alike on the ill-guarded highways.
Ruling in the flagging king's stead is the Temple of Divine Revelation, a socio-religious sect dedicated to the worship of the Architect, Great Father of the world, and his Heir, Soleris Atir, symbolized in the mortal realm by the sun. Commanding a fierce army of knights called the Order of Adavarion, the Temple maintains law the way the Canticles suggest--by hunting down those who upset the natural order: the Gifted, people born of magical blood and wielding with the power to shape the world. The choice is simple: submit to registration as a mage and live under scrutiny, or else be branded a witch, to be hunted down and killed. For many magiborn (those of magical stock), the choice is not simple, and can easily end in death. And without the king to combat its rule, the Temple has the first word, and the last.
