About this listen

What if you were forced to commit atrocities—fully aware, fully yourself—but powerless to stop? Commander Shannus remembers everything. Every village burned. Every prisoner executed. Every soldier sent to die under his command. The third lobe embedded in his skull chains him to the dark lord Baiga's will, turning him into a weapon against his own people. But Baiga's rushed conversion left something behind: awareness.

Shannus is a prisoner in his own body, forced to witness horrors he cannot prevent. When a crack appears in his mental chains, Shannus faces an impossible choice: continue as Baiga's slave, or risk everything—including his son's life—for a chance at freedom.
