In this dark epic fantasy that crackles with sinister sorcery and eldritch energy, ancient evil and prophecy collide as an unsuspecting medieval kingdom, still recovering from a hellish oppression that devastated the land a thousand years earlier, is about to be plunged once more into nightmare.
The end of the world is nigh!
Sharn is the insane descendant of a people who were once forcibly interbred with demons from an extra-dimensional netherworld that's separated from ours by the thinnest of sorcerous veils...
...a veil that was once torn asunder in an accident of sorcery, opening a rent through which the demons poured and overran the land,enslaving the population...
...demons that were eventually driven back beyond the veil by a noble wizard who foretold that one day the demons would return, and so would he.
Evil stirs in the land, and demons covet the world of mortals!
Captured by knights who have hunted the hybrid demonspawn to near-extinction, Sharn is imprisoned in the dank depths of the royal castle, where he becomes caught up in the nefarious plans of a scheming king's chancellor who is secretly practicing the darkest of magical arts.
The queen has just given birth to a son, kicking off the fulfillment of ancient prophecy. Sharn, somehow granted a reprieve from his madness by the newborn prince, kidnaps the royal heir and escapes the castle.
They wait impatiently behind a wall that is about to be torn down by black sorcery!
And the hunt begins, as Sharn flees across a countryside where every hand is turned against him, heading toward destiny.
Now, a king's evil chancellor schemes to reopen the Veil and once again unleash the demons. The world's only hope of salvation is an insane boy, himself the descendant of demonic/human hybrids, and the newborn baby he's kidnapped.
