In a land where the divine has long since turned its gaze away, broken men wander through swamp and shadow, each haunted by the ghosts they carry-and the monsters they're becoming.
Meanwhile, deep in the muck, something ancient stirs within a troglodyte warlord-a buried egg pulsing with power, hunger, and a destiny not its own.
Around them, the world decays. Empires rot behind indifferent gods. And in the ruins of broken oaths and forgotten names, these two haunted souls-one human, one not-must decide what remains when faith fails, and what they'll become when the voices finally take hold.
Because in this story, every man is haunted-by duty, by past sins, by things they once believed in... and by what waits for them in the dark.
Alliances fracture. Magic festers. Justice forgets who it serves.
And in the margins of the Divine Text, a new chapter begins.
