But the war they find themselves in is not the one they were promised.
Thrown into a brutal conflict far from home, Kael is forced to confront the harsh realities that test his loyalty to the Covenant and the ideals he once held dear. Auctor, on the other hand, finds certainty and strength in the midst of chaos, leading him to question his brother’s doubts and fears.
As they fight for their beliefs, the bond between Kael and Auctor is put to the ultimate test.
