The premise

Caught between two warring clans, the son of a notorious witch responsible for a deadly massacre tries to find his place in the world — and his powers.

Horror Vault's take

Born from infamy, a young man raised on the fringes of a secret magical world must navigate the deadly conflict between two rival witch clans — all while grappling with powers he barely understands. His bloodline marks him as either a weapon or a target, and those around him have agendas of their own. Raw, bloody, and emotionally charged, this series blends YA coming-of-age angst with genuinely dark supernatural stakes.
