Asterios is a young boy trapped in a cruel destiny, forced to be strong not for his own freedom, but for the ambitions of his father.

This is a dark fantasy and also a journey of learning about how great leaders are created and how a man can be led to glory, becoming someone who will be remembered for eternity.

I want to show not only the beautiful side of great leaders, not just the glory and gold, but also the ugly, the cruelty, the pain, all the horrible actions that every great commander had to carry out to be marked in history, and how each character deals with the weight of their own actions.

On a dark and stormy night, amidst mountains of bodies, the purple star is born.

May its light warm our hearts and burn our enemies.
