Blood-Stained Pages
The Aeon of peace is ending.
Agent Kyle Callix of the Very Strange Things Agency (VST) is burnt out, haunted by the unsolved disappearance of his partner and the recent, traumatic attack on the Omill Truth Precinct. He is a man running on fumes, pushed to the brink by a world that is becoming increasingly inexplicable and hostile.
His desperate need for rest is shattered when he is dispatched to the notoriously proud and hostile city of Kantine. The problem is gruesome: feral, starving figures are emerging from the northern wastelands, attacking citizens. Those bitten don't just die-they rise with the same mindless, ravenous hunger, turning on their own families.
Kyle's investigation leads him to a terrifying conclusion. This is not just a local disease or a weapon; it is the first shudder of an apocalyptic threat. The source is Youlle, the legendary, technologically advanced city that has been sealed for generations. Now, it has fallen silent, and its horrors are spilling out.
As Kyle battles Kantinian prejudice, bureaucratic obstruction, and his own crumbling sanity, he uncovers a truth far worse than he imagined. The "devourers" are just the beginning. A primordial Darkness is coming, a consuming force that threatens to swallow the entire Mainland.
With no support, dwindling resources, and a city in denial, Kyle must find a way to stop the inevitable. But how do you fight an enemy that turns your own people into weapons? And how do you find the will to stand when you are already broken.
