About this story

In a galaxy forsaken, infernal gateways tear asunder, unleashing Hell’s legions to crush all in their grasp. From the ashes, Theosis, the Divine System and God’s voice in this temporal realm, ascends.  It forges a grand Empire, waging four millennia of merciless Holy War against the Underworld’s unrelenting evil. Far from the Empire’s light, on a savage world, Angar is wrought in fury as a gateway to the abyss claws his homeland apart, now thrust into this eternal war. His maul thunders with unyielding hate, offering crimson tithes to the Lord, carving a blood-soaked path to glory – or damnation.  His chest ablaze with righteous wrath, his arms singing slaughter’s sacred hymn, a new Crusader rises.
