Is her time finally running out or is there any hope that she can escape the insidious sorcery that threatens to devour her from within?




And if her failure to outrun the dark past brings her to a sure and certain end, how can she make it such that those she loves will be safe and the wicked world will never forget her passing?




Her path brings her to an ancient mountain city with monsters without, monsters within, and monsters beneath. Faced by enormous odds, Ax-Wed's fell hand will wield her grinning weapon with a resoluteness born of necessity.




But evil is unleashed when eldritch schemes wrought and brewed decades before finally bear their terrible fruit. With her enemy both without and within, can she hope to stand, even when falling means death or worse for those in her care?




In this dark time, allies unlooked for are as strange and terrible as any enemy she might face and it seems her only chance is to throw herself once more into the breach. But what if bloody hands put to bloody work is not enough?




As shadows of an malevolent past stretch longer and deeper than ever before, Ax-Wed will come to face to face with who she is, where she has been, and what she most desperately needs.
