-Zerish is a world that once knew peace. Back during the age of the Cender Kingdom, all were fairly watched over by Terfree, the God that created the mythical Sacred Swords. However, disaster struck when the people betrayed Terfree, and he abandoned them. Humans, the natural rulers of the land, and zerans, human-like beings with animal traits, split apart in the fight for survival.
It has been centuries since the disappearance of Terfree, but his Sacred Swords remain: weapons capable of incredible feats such as commanding the elements or stopping time. Humans traded territories for them, wars were fought over them, and nations were crushed while wielding them. Only a select group of people, known as the protectors of the swords, continued to respect Terfree's weapons in accordance with his will. Due to this, God broke his silence to entrust them with a mission. Return his swords to their proper place.
Saxonna Shysie, one of twenty warriors assigned this task, plans on achieving this impossible undertaking. While an expert on everything related to swords, she has little experience with the outside world and its politics. When faced with the corruption caused by the Sacred Swords, she must come to terms with what these ancient weapons truly mean for society.
Not all corruption comes from these weapons, however. Yusha Wieland seeks to live a simple life while raising his sister. These dreams end abruptly when tragedy struck. Without anyone around to help him get justice, he decides to take it into his own hands. No matter the cost.
Across the Divide, a young girl named Rende struggles to survive. Born without traits-the identifiers of a zeran-she is beaten daily and treated as worse than dirt. Though she genuinely believes she belongs, she soon finds an opportunity when she learns of a Sacred Sword that can artificially give her these traits. Fake traits are better than none, and Rende is determined to find a way to fit in.
The first book in the Sacred Swords series, the Sentient Sword is but the beginning to an epic adventure full of survival, loss, and depth.
