Prince Arslan grows up in the kingdom of Pars under his father King Andragoras III, a ruthless ruler whose iron fist keeps the nation thriving. Sheltered and idealistic, Arslan has no idea what life is really like for most people—until he encounters a young Lusitanian slave who escapes captivity and briefly takes him hostage. The slave reveals the horrifying truth about slavery and suffering in Pars, shaking Arslan's naive worldview. Three years later, Arslan fights his first real battle against Lusitania. Thanks to enemy spies and clever traps, it turns into a total massacre. Most of the Parsian army is wiped out, and Arslan barely escapes with his closest friend and bodyguard, Daryun. His father has vanished, and Pars is now under Lusitanian occupation. In a single day, Arslan loses everything. On the run, Daryun introduces Arslan to Narsus, a quirky military strategist with a sharp mind. Together with Narsus and allies he recruits along the way, Arslan starts plotting to take back his kingdom. It's an uphill battle—he faces treacherous nobles, a mysterious masked warrior, and his own doubts. But Arslan is determined to save Pars from invasion and from the corruption rotting it from within.
