In their way stands only one thing... The mysterious Cathedral HoundsA force of elite warriors under the banner of the church, who sacrificed their humanity and took part in black-blood communion. Half human, half beast. With enough strength to match the vermin, they travel through the dead of night and fight this uneven battle. For as much as just a sliver of hope that a better tomorrow may soon come. Witness the tale of Vince, the weakest Hound, his allies, and enemies as they all realize their purpose in this god-forsaken wasteland is not all that simple. After all... Even in this world, as shrouded in darkness as it is... Even in a sea of blood and corpses, a star of hope can still be born.
