Inhaltsangabe

In the shadowed halls of forgotten thrones, where good intentions forge chains of regret, No Good Kings weaves a haunting tapestry of power's quiet cruelties. This gripping novella anthology follows six rulers—kings, queens, emperors, and tsars—each crowned with noble resolve, yet ensnared by the Serath's insidious whispers: an ancient echo promising wisdom, but delivering only the weight of what-ifs.

Bound by a mysterious iron ring that passes like a curse from hand to hand, these sovereigns confront impossible crossroads. A riverlord dams famine's tide, only to unleash downstream devastation. A plague-ridden queen trades her heir's innocence for her isles' breath. An exiled general's mercy unravels an empire's silk. A reaper-king harvests his people's bones to feed the borders. A raincaller veils his daughter's dreams for fragile peace. And a hearth-keeper burns ancestral lore to kindle unity, igniting buried truths.

Framed by a mythic prologue and a reflective epilogue, these interconnected vignettes explore the gray heart of leadership: the illusion of control, the erosion of legacy, and how "the right thing" fractures the soul. In a world of dark fantasy and moral ambiguity, no crown sits easily, every choice echoes with the drowned, the scarred, and the silenced.
