His father tried to break his body. To survive, he rewrote the rules of his mind.

Eight-year-old Kit Landon is a project in progress. As the only son of the Butcher, he is the subject of a cruel curriculum designed to forge a perfect ducal heir through pain and isolation. But when Kit's mother dies, the Butcher's need to keep up appearances dies with her. The honing ceases. The interest vanishes. Kit is left as a hollowed-out asset, abandoned in the wreckage of his own training.

His only refuge is a reclusive mage, Cowl, a man with a dark history tied to the Landon bloodline. Cowl recognizes that Kit possesses a terrifyingly unique aptitude for splitting his mind. While most magi use this skill for simple focus, Kit's psyche-already fractured by his father's neglect-pushes the magic to a lethal extreme.

He doesn't just partition his mind; he fractures his consciousness into sentient, semi-autonomous Vestiges. He offloads the agony of his isolation to an Emotional Vestige and delegates complex cognitive threads to Logical Vestiges. It is a desperate, mechanical adaptation to manage a life stripped of its purpose.

But as political machinations turn the Landon manor into a slaughterhouse, the discarded son is caught in the crossfire. To survive the collapse of his world, Kit must rely on the managed ruin of his own mind-a power that keeps him functional, even as the Vestiges he created to survive his father begin to demand a life of their own.

Perfect for fans of the systematic magic and intricate world-building in _Mother of Learning_ and the gut-wrenching character journey of Robin Hobb's _Farseer_ trilogy.
