In a forgotten age, the Emperor made a choice that changed the fate of mankind. To conquer the world, he forged a pact with Hell—granting him victory and dominion in exchange for the souls of his people, and the destruction of the sacred path that once linked Earth to Heaven. The world fell silent beneath his rule, and the gods turned their gaze away.
But the price did not end with the war.
Years later, the signs began to show. As the people aged, their souls—bound by the infernal contract—began to decay. Flesh blackened, minds hollowed, and they became something less than human: walking husks, enslaved by corruption, their wills no longer their own.
And those blessed by Heaven, bound by their own convictions, set out on a journey to shatter the chains of fate.
