The Warden's Path: Book 3 of the Kingstone Trilogy

He was never meant to stand alone. Now the world is beginning to revolve around him.

Eric is no longer running. The Arbiters have passed their judgment. The System has taken notice. And the fragile balance is beginning to fracture under the weight of something far more dangerous than corruption. Stability.

As a Warden, Eric doesn’t just fight monsters, he restores the very foundations of the world. Broken stones. Severed ley lines. Regions abandoned to chaos. With every restoration, he grows stronger. And with every step forward, he becomes a bigger threat.

Kingdoms begin to move. Crownblade assassins hunt him without rest. Kingsmen march under orders they don’t fully understand. Because Eric is doing something no one has done before: He is changing the System itself.

But power has a cost. His body bears the scars of constant battle. His magic strains under impossible demands. And the only companion he can trust, a growing dragon bound to his fate, draws even more attention from those who would see him controlled… or eliminated.

When his enemies fail to kill him, they choose something worse. They go after what he left behind. Now, as war closes in on his homeland and the lines between balance and control begin to blur, Eric must make a choice: Remain a Warden…

Or become something the world cannot contain.

Because the System doesn’t just create guardians. Sometimes… It creates keystones.
