The Sacred Blacksmith - S01

Forty-four years after the Valbanil War ended, the surviving nations agreed to peace and banned the demon contracts that once devastated the land. Cecily Cambell, a young knight with little experience, wants to uphold her family’s legacy by protecting the city with her father’s sword. Her first test comes in the marketplace, where a deranged swordsman attacks civilians. Cecily steps in but is quickly overpowered, her weapon breaking in the fight. A skilled stranger wielding an unusual sword saves her. Afterward, she takes her shattered heirloom to a blacksmith, only to learn that the man who rescued her-Luke Ainsworth-might be the only one who can repair it properly. Determined to restore her sword, she seeks him out. But trouble arises again when bandits strike a convoy bound for the city. These attackers don’t seem human, and when an ice demon appears, Luke senses a demon contract at work. He uses a sacred power to defeat them. Nearby, a hooded figure watches in secret. Who is this shadowy stranger, and what danger does his presence bring for Cecily and Luke?
