After surviving the slaughter of Dulkvit, Kori and his companions are thrust into a world far more dangerous than the battlefield they escaped. Hunted by monsters both human and inhuman, they must endure not only the scars of yesterday but the merciless trials ahead.
As Kori's Devil-blood becomes the target of schemes and horrors beyond his understanding, tormented by dark forces and tested by the very land itself. Cities burn with false light, and every step forward unearths darker truths about the world and what he is becoming.
