Heads rolling across the ground, cities burning in flames, terrifying creatures rising from the darkness of night, a society pulling the strings of the Empire from the shadows, a mysterious faith seeking to restore destiny to the path it should never have strayed from, the end of the world, sword fights, magic, humor, foul-mouthed characters, the odd sumbitch running loose, and, as always, struggles for power.

Emperor Upodis has managed to seize the Imperial Throne with the help of the Black Hand. To legitimize his rule, he plans to obtain the seven sacred Orbs. To that end, he assigns the mission of recovering these ancient and mysterious objects to a select group of intrepid characters.

Driven by an ancient prophecy, a ruthless warrior will fight to take the Empire for himself. In his pursuit of glory, a mercenary will be dragged into ruin by his dissolute ways. An unexpected twist will force an assassin to ally with the very person he was meant to kill in order to survive. To obtain what he desires most, a scholar will risk bringing about the end of the world. Pushed by greed, a thief will seek the wealth he longs for.

A journey across a world filled with dangers, betrayals, strange alliances, conspiracies, shattered dreams, and magic, in which all of them will strive to recover the Orbs...

…if the Night Hunters do not finish them off first.
