The fantastical realm of Langrose was once protected by ancient magical Guardians and their powerful riders.  But when the Ragnar empire invaded, the guardians vanished, leaving the kingdom defenseless against their cruel tyranny.

 Many years after the invasion, a young boy named Neyland lives on a frozen, and cursed mountain with his father and younger brother. Neyland's life is shrouded in secrecy, his past and his purpose uncertain. But when a shadow slayer arrives at his doorstep one fateful morning, his life is forever changed.

 Deep beneath his cabin, Neyland discovers an ancient Ale'ric Guardian, Magnus. Half-wolf, half-lion, Magnus is a massive, fire-breathing creature, and Neyland is chosen to be his rider. Together, they embark on a dangerous journey to free Langrose from the grip of the empire and uncover the secrets of Neyland's past.

 Will Neyland and Magnus be able to overcome the empire's darkness and restore the kingdom to its former glory? Only time will tell in this thrilling tale of magic, danger, and destiny.
