Cold. Creeping chill in the bones of all mankind, who in their last simultaneous breath feel their bodies disintegrate into vapor. The world over, seven billion people vanish from inside their clothes, leaving behind a world empty, and quiet, and strange.
This is the way the world ended.
Forty years on, the people of New Canterbury, among the 0.01% of humanity to survive the End, are desperate to save all that remains of civilisation. When famine strikes, and thousands starve, an army gathers in the feudal North, bent on finding retribution for mysterious past evils.
As supernatural forces awaken, pulling the strings behind the curtain, the world grows darker, and the last war of humanity looms on the horizon.
