The Sword Saint—Kassadin Bromm.
Once a peasant boy born into squalor and hardship, he had no noble lineage or great master to guide him—only an unyielding will and a sword stolen from the battlefield. Despite his humble origins, the man clawed his way up to the apex of humanity through sheer hard work and talent.
And his talent was unparalleled.
Even without a prestigious bloodline or any divine master to serve as a guide, he mastered the art of the sword by age thirteen. By seventeen, he had already slain multiple Demonic beings and became a prominent swordsman before it was even legal for him to drink alcohol.
Alrock Solaris, the greatest prodigy of the Solaris House in his time, admitted his inferiority to the Sword Saint and openly proclaimed him the finest of their generation. And without question, the Lord Protector of the Realm, a role only reserved for the most potent human alive, was his for the taking.
There wasn't even a close second.
