He wakes up a dead man in a dying empire. Gifted with the unnatural power to absorb the memories and masteries of the deceased, a lowly officer begins a treacherous ascent. In a world of sophisticated court politics and a looming foreign invasion, he must leverage every ghost's secret to climb from the morgue to the ministry. He hones his skills as both a cunning strategist and a formidable warrior, becoming the only force standing between his homeland and a historical catastrophe. But to change the past is to challenge fate itself—a war waged in shadows against corrupt officials, relentless invaders, and a clandestine order that holds the true keys to the kingdom. Can he become the master of a game where the board is an empire and the pieces are living souls?
