Publisher Description

In the beginning, men believed in their god. That was their first mistake...

Vasruda, God of Light, watched over the infant fifth race. Within Vasruhal, the City of Flame, the race of men grew from just a small handful to millions. But a goddess beyond the realm named Mortua saw an opportunity to curse that which was pure.

Now, with cataclysm spreading across the lands, a newly christened Holy Templar, and Anointed One named Habrin, prepares to defend their capital city, their people, and the seat of their One God. His Vahami, his "holy journey", ended with chaos. He prepares for what crests the horizon of enshrouding darkness.

The undead and Necromancers of the Dark Goddess will not stop until they are all dead. But what else is coming will change everything... a supposed immaculate conception and a woman claiming she has the child of the One God within her. Habrin and his brethren will have an impossible task against insurmountable odds.

The Anointed must not fail their creed or their god. No matter the costs.
