After a century of imprisonment, demons have broken free of the wardstones surrounding the Worldwound. Gathering an unlikely group of allies, Count Varian Jeggare and his hellspawn bodyguard Radovan desperately search the ruins of a fallen nation for a magical text containing the rituals that first opened the gate to the Abyss, hoping it also contains the secret to closing it.
At the same time, however, the heroes find themselves facing off against attacks from unexpected foes, as both the pious crusaders heading the world’s defenses and Varian’s undying nemesis also vie for control of the lost text. As they fight across a broken land of cultists, fiends, and monsters, Radovan and Varian must make hard choices that could help save the world — or destroy it completely.
