Shadow of Peace : VOLUME 1


“Before there was peace, there was war.Before there was light, there was only shadow.”
Long before memory, the world was torn by endless conflict. Eleven great clans ruled the lands, each driven by pride, power, and an unquenchable thirst for dominance. Their wars scorched the earth, drowned cities, and left only ashes in their wake. Children were raised for battle, not for dreams. And hope… hope became a forgotten word.
But amidst the ruins, a prophecy was whispered — of a soul born not from hatred, but silence. A shadow, not of death… but of peace.
His name is Kaizen.
Neither hero nor villain, Kaizen walks a path unseen — a lone warrior bound by scars of the past and the burden of a future no one believes in. In a world where peace is seen as weakness, he chooses it as his weapon. But to unite a shattered world, he must face the truth: peace is not the absence of war… it is the battle no one dares to fight.
And from the shadows, a storm brews — one that threatens to tear apart everything he stands for.
This is not a tale of kingdoms.This is not a tale of conquest.This… is the tale of a single soul who dared to bring peace to a world drowning in its own blood.
