ROME IS ON THE BRINK. THE NIGHTMARE HAS BEGUN. In the golden age of Rome, where legions march unchallenged and emperors believe themselves untouchable, an unspeakable horror emerges from the darkness. Entire colonies are wiped out overnight, their streets drenched in blood, their people torn apart by monstrous entities that defy nature itself. The Senate scoffs at the warnings, but General Maximus knows the truth-something ancient has awakened, and it will not stop until Rome itself falls. With his seven mighty warriors, a reluctant senator, and an army of battle-hardened soldiers, Maximus embarks on a campaign to confront the nightmare. But when the Gremors-inhuman creatures born from the abyss-ambush their forces, even Rome's finest are left shaken. Then comes the Red Guardian, a being of godlike power, his crimson eyes burning with a hunger for destruction. As Maximus fights to hold the line, an enigmatic warrior known only as Nameless emerges from the shadows. He alone wields the knowledge of the enemy's origins, and his lost name may be the key to saving the world. But as the battles rage and the corpses pile high, one question haunts them all: Can Rome's greatest warriors defeat an enemy that should not exist? Or will the Empire's golden age end in blood and fire?
