Synopsis

Man is a fallible creature. He bends to the whims of his needs, and most of all his desires. The seduction of humanity takes on many forms, catering to the anger, the lusts, and every other cardinal sin dwelling in hearts.  In a world shattered by the ravages of war and a country torn apart by civil unrest, Noah's life is forever changed when his family is torn from him by one woman's insatiable thirst for pride. Consumed by grief that blooms into an unrelenting fury, he embarks on a quest for justice that leads him into the shadows of his own soul. Alone in a world left with only echos of humanity and order, Noah grapples with a being he does not understand. He discovers a world where the line between good and evil blurs, where entities thought myth are reality, and the true nature of power lies in the darkness within. Guided by a muse he cannot fully comprehend and strange abilities he must learn to control, he must navigate a treacherous path where every step brings him closer to the edge of his own humanity. Noah must confront the shadows that lurk within his own heart as he seeks to uncover not only the truth behind his family's demise, but the fate of the world he once knew. But as he delves deeper into the abyss, he realizes that the greatest battles are fought not with weapons, but with the choices we make and the darkness we dare to confront.
