Synopsis
Bound in chains yet yearning for freedom, Alpheo, a modern historian, finds himself enslaved in a land on the brink of chaos.
As the empire of Rolmia plunges into civil war following the death of the emperor , his three ambitious sons vie for the throne. In the midst of this turmoil, Alpheo finds the chance to break his chain and escape, leading his companions into the ashes of war, trying to thrive in it, selling their swords to the highest bidder .
But beyond the borders of Rolmia, hungry eyes watch as the empire's grip loosens. The Sultanate of Azania, ever the opportunist, sees a chance to expand its domain and influence , while to the south, neighboring principalities breathe a sigh of relief as the once-dominant giant stumbles and falters.
In the sea, the confederation of the Free Isle finds their chance to restore their old maritime power , denied to them by an empire that is now crumbling beneath itself , lacking the strenght to stop them.
In this crucible of conflict, where dynasties crumble and empires fall, Alpheo find his call and the chance to forge his own destiny amidst the ashes of empires.

overall is good but gonna stock more chapter to read this again anyway keep it up and goodluck
You are building the world background quite nicely. And I love how you are clear about the personality of the characters. And how you progress the story with a clear goal in mind
The story has potential, but the beginning "world building" chapters are almost unintelligible. The story keeps jumping to different characters and it ends up completely ruined due to that.
It's like Game of Thrones and it's terrible... Terribly delicious! The book is great and the author of soldering stars thanks for it!-----------------------------------------------------------------
fantastic story with realistic world building and history, the most captivating part of the story is the well thought-out plot as through the multiple POV's we get a layered story of different factions and intrigue. Hope this story gets its recognition and support it deserves, good luck Author.
Although I’ve only read 6 chapters the world building and lore is nice, I’m liking the characters so far, with only 80 chaoters it’s still like a baby book hoping to see more though. Keep up the book author I like it so far.

Pretty good so far can tell there’s some got inspiration. Only critic is the grammar but other than that a very good read. ———-////——-
I really like the novel! The rich detail and engaging storyline are amazing, and the character development is top-notch. I really hope the author doesn't drop this novel because I'm just getting hooked and I can't wait to see where the story goes next. The world you've created is fascinating, and I'm eager to keep reading and exploring more of it. The only downside is the update frequency. Keep up the awesome work![img=recommend]
Hey guys, shameless author is here! This is my last work , which I hope it will go well. The starting chapters will be about defining the worl-building of the novel, also the work will follow many stories even though the main one will be of the mc. I hope that you will like it , as I believe it will be my best one
