King Malric the Hollow
for King Malric the Hollow in The Last Lumen
Suggested by orz1992

In a realm fractured by war and ruled by a tyrant who commands the power of the stars, hope has all but faded. The ancient order of the Starbound Blades, once guardians of the mystical Lumen, has long been extinguished—its legends buried in shadow and silence. But when a young blacksmith’s apprentice named Elen discovers a blade forged from the fallen sky, she ignites a spark that could rekindle the light and shatter the darkness. Hunted by the king’s Black Flame knights and guided by a disgraced warrior, a rebel prince, and a seer touched by prophecy, Elen must unlock the secrets of the Lumen and rise to face a fate written in the stars. For in a world where even legends burn, the last light must choose whether to shine—or be extinguished forever.
