(Chapters 6-8) With his past catching up to him and the loss of his true love still burning in his heart, Tatsuya is drawn into a final, unavoidable confrontation with Zodac, the master of the Crimson Dragons. What begins as vengeance becomes something far greater as battle forces him to confront not only his enemy, but the purpose behind his power. As steel and destiny collide, Tatsuya must decide whether he is driven by rage… or called to become something more. In this climactic chapter, a warrior is tested, a legend is forged, and a guardian of justice is born.
