The World of Roils

An Olyndar Novel — Book One

In the Steel City of Titan, survival is just another strategy.

Saladin Colles thought fighting in an underground arena would keep the past at bay. Zethian’s trying to outrun his face—quite literally, since it’s now on wanted posters. Teylek, once a devout warforged cleric, is caught between gods who have stopped answering and secrets that won’t stay buried. And Theodore... well, Theodore has a talking gun, a cursed past, and a dangerous new patron whispering promises in the dark.

Together, these four strangers are thrown into an uneasy alliance just as Titan begins to tremble. A cult is on the rise. Magical enhancements are warping fighters into monsters. The Concord—the city’s elite power council—is playing a deeper game. And something ancient beneath the city’s bones has started to stir.

From burning kebab shops to cursed loot, gladiatorial matches to mysterious murders, the party soon realizes they’ve stumbled into more than just a job. There’s a gambit in motion—and they may already be part of the stakes.

Steel meets sorcery, faith meets fallout, and friendship may be the only thing that keeps them alive.

If they don’t kill each other first.
