The Rejected Guardian: The Kingdom's Last Hope


Branded a fraud, Adrian Sterling is dragged before the court as the crowd screams for his execution. Then, a thousand miles away, the Duskcrystal Wall shatters. The fiendish horde floods into the realm—and the only man who can save humanity is the very guardian the kingdom is about to behead.

00:01With none to stand against us, consuming this frontier has proven easier than I reckoned.
00:08There is only that small town yet remaining.
00:11Leaving it standing still wrangles.
00:14Too much greed breeds ruin.
00:16Adrian is estranged from the realm.
00:19That is why he holds back.
00:21Leave him a place to rest and we gain far more than we would by driving him back into the
00:26fret.
00:26Now that I can abide, surrender one town, claim an entire realm, a worthy exchange.
00:33More than worthy. We come out greatly ahead.
00:35They already rot from within. We need only watch.
00:38Yet in Vararia's royal capital, the old wretch still stands.
00:42Which makes this moment perfect.
00:44The Osarium warlot has awakened.
00:52Adrian, that blade of yours, I have carried it with me ten years.
01:15Malachan, at last you wake.
01:17That was a long sleep indeed.
01:21Adrian, ten years of sleep.
01:23I shall reclaim every inch of what is owed.
01:29Do not let vengeance cloud your sight.
01:31His death shall come, but not yet.
01:34You presume to instruct me?
01:37I save you from wasted effort.
01:39Adrian has severed himself from Verendia.
01:42This is the hour.
01:43Consume Verendia first, then await the descent of the Lord below.
01:46When that day comes, Adrian stands alone.
01:49Indeed.
01:50Even with the three of us joined together,
01:53we may yet fall short against him.
01:55But when the Lord below descends,
01:59he shall no longer stand in our way.
02:01Very well.
02:02I shall endure a while longer.
02:04But before that day comes, I want blood.
02:07Fresh, mortal blood.
02:09The frontier lies more than half emptied.
02:12We consume inward from the edges now.
02:15Ring upon ring.
02:16We draw the circle tighter.
02:18Let them watch.
02:19Watch the land run red.
02:21Watch their cities vanish one by one.
02:24Watch our city.
02:25Hooray Pod.
02:26Father, water, water, water, water, water.
02:28Refuge the high air.
02:30Break the right away.
02:30The frontier lies more than half beautifully.
02:31You
