The war against the Dark Lord ended fifteen years ago.  Victory was certain until a last revenge was activated and a magical disease spread across the armies and nobility, killing or causing slow degeneration of humans into degenerate creatures. The Kingdom of Nurberg looked prepared to fall until a minor Goddess of Light Aliza rose to power within the capital city and provided magical protection to all within driving back the corruption.  The survivors in the capital city remain in peril unless the source of the corruption and the last remaining traces of the magical virus are eradicated and destroyed.  All attempts to cross the ravaged lands and the the final stronghold and resting place of the Dark Lord have failed so far. Time is running out as other outside forces hunger for the land, population and resources of the weakened kingdom and cultists within seek to bring back the Dark Lord. One final chance, to find the one who can pass through the final layers of protection to reach the artifact and destroy it.  The search for the Betrayerborne begins.  -Weak to strong male MC -2500+ words per chapter -Magical Viruses -Augmented Soldiers/Broken Medieval Superhumans -European Fantasy setting with Light and Corruption Magic -Morally grey characters -Genetic experiments producing Fallen Angels -Walking, talking Terracotta Warrior -Technically Immortal Former Baker turned Mercenary
