Why Oceans Burn
They burned my mother at the stake for wanting freedom.
Thirteen years later, I’ll burn their empire to the ocean floor.
*
Salvator was just a boy when the Empirium burned his mother alive, guilty of the greatest crime: wanting her people free.
Thirteen years later, he fights not with swords, but with fire—the living fire of the Titan Hearts, ancient powers born from the ocean depths of his enslaved planet.
In the Titan Games, victory grants freedom. Failure means death. Salvator is willing to risk everything to win—his life, his crew, even his soul.
But the deeper he dives into the politics of rebellion, monstrous sea creatures, and the twisted truth behind the Titan Hearts, the more he realizes:
Some chains aren’t broken with power. They’re broken with sacrifice.
A sci-fi fantasy saga of freedom, fire, and betrayal beneath the waves.
