Frostbound

A child beggar dies on a mountain and meets the voice of Destiny itself. His fate has been swallowed by another, and the one who should have come to save him chose the wrong person. Reborn into an ordinary family, he lives and dies again under the soldiers' blades. Each time he returns, he remembers more, and each time he demands more from the voice that rules his lives. Riven will become a swordsman, a killer, a smith, and finally a weapon aimed at the very order of Heaven.
