The Holy War is over. The demons of Gologotha have been banished, yet the cost has been terribly high. The Creator, god of the Fyllid, has been defeated and the faith of the people has begun to wane.

Into this divided land steps a wizard, a man haunted by his past, whose choices will shape the future.
