Zafira is the Huntress, disguises herself as a man when she challenges the cursed forest of the Arz to feed her people. Nasir is the Prince of Death, killing those dumb enough to challenge his autocratic father, the king. If Zafira were exposed as a child, all her achievements would be rejected; If Nasir showed his compassion, his father would punish him in the most brutal way.
Both are legends in the Arawiya kingdom, but neither wants to be.
The war is brewing, and the Arz is approaching every day that passes, wrapping the earth in the shadow. When Zafira embarks on a quest to discover a lost artifact that can restore magic in his suffering world and stop Arz, Nasir is sent by the king on a similar mission: to recover the artifact and kill the Hunter. But an ancient evil is agitated as their journey unfolds, and the prize they seek may pose a greater threat than anyone can imagine.
Located in a world rich in details inspired by ancient Arabia, We Hunt the Flame is an exciting discovery debut, conquers fear and takes identity into your own hands.
