The world is crumbling...and no one knows how to stop it.

Eons ago, the Lastborn Son, a god incarnate, saved the world from complete destruction at the hands of his brother, the Firstborn. Now, the world seems set for the Firstborn's return, with his army of dead rising at the hands of necromancers.

Erik didn't think it had anything to do with him. Grown complacent on his home island near the edge of the world, he is torn from routine when his closest friend suddenly murders him and a necromancer reanimates him. He has a second chance--but for what, he hasn't the faintest idea.


What he does know is he wants resurrection, true resurrection. And there is one person who might lead him to it, a mysterious man or woman known as the Rook. Erik will stop at nothing to find the Rook. He's already lost his life--what more does he have to lose?


But the foundations of the world are falling apart...for the last time.
