A decade of planning culminates in a nearly bloodless coup in the Kingdom of Aleghor. King Benedict takes the throne with the intention of eradicating the corruption which was synonymous with the rule and name of his predecessor, King Atomas.It is a task which proves to be harder than overthrowing the kingdom itself and while Benedict compromises his values and disregards the beliefs of the people he now rules despite his best intentions, his actions begin to turn the people against him.Fueled by the winds of deceit and corruption, the kingdom's people are enticed into rising against the king they saw as their savior. His rumored association with his predecessor's mistress and relationship with his predecessor's wife become a tool for the purposes of betrayal and undermining his authority as king.As loyalties start to fall into question and control starts to slip away from Benedict, will he be able to ensure the survival of his dream of eradicating corruption from the kingdom? How far and long will the loyalty and love of his supporters last?While Benedict struggles for control, Mt. Almall, a volcano dormant for centuries, stirs to life. Awoken by mining activities to extract the rarest mineral known to man, warning signals are ignored and hidden from Benedict's knowledge.By the time that the betrayal and deceit are finally revealed, an army of ten thousand men is camped at the gates of the city demanding Benedict's surrender. With Mt. Almall threatening to erupt at any moment, will Benedict or anyone be able to save the city and people of Kyrshom?This story is set in a city against the backdrop of a city similar to Pompeii and the volcano, Vesuvius. A character similar to Samson in the bible helps to create an epic story including romance and tragedy while fundamentally following a storyline inspired by Cold Play's song of the same name.With the events similar to the life of Samson described in this novel, do not expect this story to be religious. It isn't. It is also only one part of the overall story. It is also not a retelling of the end of Pompeii.
