Overview: WITHOUT ANCESTORS NURTURED BY FAMILY HEARTHS. WITHOUT ACCESS TO GODS ONLY ANCESTORS CAN CALL UPON. WILL THIS BAND OF STRAYS LEARN TO BE SLAYERS?
Chariot crumbs. That’s how the noble shi ren and their retainers shu ren look upon someone like Stone, born outside these prescribed ranks in the realm of Hua Hsia and not protected by any family lineage.
Stone swears that he will never let anyone trained by him end up as chariot crumbs, bloody gristle stuck to the wheels of chariots driven by nobles. Conscripted again, fighting in the ranks of shu ren again, the campaign ends and he is still not acceptable as a retainer. He is back to wandering the roads looking for a battle he might join.
Stone finds himself with four other hearth-less road rats on that road. Joined now by two malcontents and two rakers, Stone must decide if he wants to be their leader. They have all proven themselves worthy in battle. Can they band together to become a fighting troop?
It is a long road. Can they build a hearth fire to call their own, rally deities to their aid, fend off the ghosts that trail them? They must, if they want to establish their place as Slayers in the realm of Hua Hsia.
