Immerse yourself in the 7th century BC with Tiglath Assur, an Assyrian prince stripped of his throne and condemned to exile by his own half-brother. Accompanied by his loyal servant Kefalos, Tiglath is forced to flee Nineveh, seeking to escape the assassins who pursue him and rebuild his fortune. Marked with a red star on the palm of his hand, a symbol of both divine favor and danger, Tiglath faces a journey full of intrigue and challenges. His adventures will take him through decadent Egypt, a Phoenician trading fortress, and terrified Sicily, culminating in a final showdown in the East that will decide not only his destiny, but that of entire empires.
