Regression Weapon Master

He died watching Frostvale burn. Then he opened his eyes fifteen years in the past. Riven Rimehart remembers the fall of his family, the betrayal hidden inside his own home, and the empire's invasion that buried the north in fire and snow. This time, he will not wait for the war to begin. Born as the fifth son of House Rimehart, Riven receives a rare and dangerous vocation: Weapon Master. His growth is slower than others, but his potential is almost limitless. Greatsword, spear, bow, dagger, hammer, halberd—every weapon becomes another answer to a future that once destroyed everything he loved. But the enemy is not only marching with soldiers. They are moving through ledgers, rumors, sabotage, spies, and magic designed to break Frostvale before the first army arrives. To save his family, Riven must sharpen more than steel. He must master aura, expose the traitor in his house, break the empire's hidden schemes, and turn a doomed northern march into a fortress no invasion can swallow. A time-travel progression fantasy about weapon mastery, second chances, family, war, and the stubborn will to say no to fate.
