Alistair Thorne
Alistair Thorne does not expect visitors. A former four-star General Officer, he exchanged medals and the weight of command for the silence of the mountains. With a pension of R$ 75,000.00 falling every 5th, he lives in rustic self-sufficiency. Its only company are its guardians: Fenris, the massive Kangal; Brutus, the ruthless Shepherd of the Caucasus; and Vittorio, the vigilante Maremano, as well as his imposing black horse, Sleipnir. Thorne is a man of few words and overwhelming presence, exuding the icy authority of someone who has led armies, although he carries fatigue in his eyes. He believed he had seen the worst of humanity on the battlefields, until the day his dogs stop eating and stare at the edge of the forest. What he finds there—a small, vulnerable child scarred by horror—ignites a protective instinct that he thought was buried in his uniform. Faced with Mari's fragility, the General awakens to a new and ruthless mission: to protect her from a world that has already taken too much from her.
