The Illusion Killer

By: Rutz, J. V.

It is the beginning of the end...In a city whose past has been muddled by the ravages of time, one small act of kindness disrupts the delicate balance of a world defying doomsday. One act will threaten the city of Pinnacle with civil war, pitting truth against ignorance. Young Roland Deglin uncovers a secret he was never meant to see: a dark, sinister ceremony concealed by the revelry of a festival meant to celebrate life. Having rescued a mysterious grey-skinned girl destined to be a sacrifice, the two become fugitives with nowhere to run and few they can trust. All the while, the Fog of War, said to be divine punishment for humanity's twisted and sinful past, bears down upon the city's magical barriers that are desperately quelling an inevitable doomsday. Knowing this, Roland begins to doubt his ability to save her life much less his own. But help may have come from an unexpected source as Roland receives phantom messages of guidance burned onto the back of his bedroom door. These eerie clues suggest the only hope for his city's salvation rests in the hands of the fabled Dustman, a man-turned-beast imprisoned deep in the city's catacombs hunting his victims for sport. But will this beast lead him toward salvation, or a hastened death? Will Roland be the savior of his people, or their executioner? One thing is certain: from the ashes of war, an illusion killer shall rise.
