A thousand years from now, Michael, Gabriel and Lucifer find themselves stuck in a desperate struggle. Michael, the all-powerful angle backed by the king, His Radiance, who plans to make the whole world kneel to him. Gabriel, who is never seen. And Lucifer, who plans to send Michael falling from the heavens much like he did, and take The Radiant One with him. And then Bleak wakes up one day in a strange house. All memories lost except unimaginable pain, he learns that he was part of a project to create a fourth arch-angel, and that they succeeded, but that he is far more powerful than they could imagine. But only his powers are fueled by one thing and one thing alone - the deaths of other angels.
