Story

Heartsteel opens on a human farmer living a solitary life in a quiet village. The established world features deep-seated animosity between humans and elves, making any encounter between the races a potential trigger for violence.

The farmer's life changes when he discovers Asha, a dark-skinned elf, wounded and alone. Dark-skinned elves are often enslaved by their own kind and viewed as threats by humans. Despite the risks, the farmer takes Asha in, knowing that hiding her is a crime punishable by death. With the harvest insufficient to support them both, the farmer and Asha decide to leave the village and embark on a new life as adventurers, concealing her identity and facing the dangers of the world together.
