“Which, if not victory, is yet revenge.” – John Milton. Paradise Lost.
The story revolves around Stoker Kabladan, a man who brings a military campaign across the world. With him comes an esoteric power, harnessed by his own armies but spreading rampantly through the people and territory he conquers.
In Kabladan’s wake of ash and blood there are thousands who desire revenge. Our story follows five who will–by either chance or fate –come together and find themselves involved in something much more grand than their desire for bloody closure.
A soldier who values his religion and country above all else. A small town school teacher who is learning from her newly instilled power. A young brother and sister, who have had everything familiar taken from them. And a wanderer with too much understanding to ignore what is happening in his world.
These companions are not in a quest for glory, they only seek retribution. However in the end, they will have to question their creeds and motivations as they confront Kabladan’s intentions, and learn the truths of a time dangerously erased from history, forgotten to the populous, but about to be reborn.
