The city of Enoch rose from the ruins of a forgotten world, becoming the first empire of human history. United under King Cain, the tribes of mankind forged a Golden Age of brilliance and power. But as Cain’s might increased, his heart calcified into wickedness, and the empire he built twisted into a machine of oppression that threatened all life on Earth.
In response, God sends a strange new force into the world, the Runes of Odin. Those touched by these runes, the Marked Ones, begin to appear across the empire. Each carries a spark of supernatural power capable of challenging Cain’s dominion and unraveling the empire’s iron grip on humanity.
Standing against Cain is Rhyden, a Master Promethean who has resisted the empire since the moment it fell into shadow. Now he is charged with protecting two orphaned boys chosen by the Runes. With the help of a young alchemist named Thornn, Rhyden must lead them through shattered battlefields, ancient labyrinths, and the dark heart of the underworld to reach Lord Enoch, the fallen king’s estranged son and the empire’s greatest enemy.
Their journey will test the boundaries of faith, loyalty, and sacrifice, for the power they bear may restore creation… or reduce it to ash!
