Nicodemus lived with enough issues already. Being a bastard was one thing, he could handle that. He could live with slipping by under society's indignant nose or avoiding his father's far off gaze. He could even deal with the crumbling walls of his abbey home and the moral degeneration occurring within it. The king's suffocating taxes, the corruption, the stares, the expectations, the depression, the lies, the whores. He could make a list of all he has to deal with on a daily basis in sub roman England. However, he isn't prepared to deal with the new threat that presses in. Savage screams call through the forests at night and travelers are turning up slaughtered from every corner. Living in fear and superstition is doubled now as what comes to light and Nicodemus has a huge change to deal with, if he even lives through it. He definitely doesn't want to live through it...

Ray is low on time, luck, and hope; his only chance is an artifact that may not even exist. But upon meeting Landon, Ray is beginning to believe he might find all four. ***** Cambions are doomed to tragedy. They are weak, sickly creatures that rarely live to see their twentieth year. Ray refuses to resign himself to that fate. Upon learning of the Crimson Sheath-an artifact capable of preserving his life-Ray is prepared to fight, steal, and kill to get his hands on it. He is not prepared for Landon. Landon is an orphan with no memories of his parents, the only inheritance left to him a dagger, sleeping in a crimson sheath. Though he has no love of bloodshed and no use for a dagger, Landon isn't about to let Ray take his only link to his forgotten history, even if that means following the cambion past the edge of the world and into the shadow beyond. Content Warnings: Violence, semi-graphic gore, character deaths, profanity, mild drug and alcohol usage, abuse discussed but not shown, and morally-questionable people doing morally-questionable things.
