And then they heard the chains…
Still reeling from her confrontation with the mysterious Gaket, Nysta must
summon all her strength to continue her pursuit of the Bloody Nine.
Accompanied by the enigmatic warlock, Chukshene, she quickly finds
herself battling even more of the insane creatures which haunt the
Deadlands.
There are many chains in the Deadlands. But only one
is strong enough to pull her toward that final bloody confrontation
where she will face Raste in a duel at Grimwood Creek.
