Marcius Aemilia was killed during a duel because his opponent cheated by using a vicious poison.

Fortunately, he was resurrected by an outer god with an agenda.

Agreeing to be the god's agent within his homeland, Marcius was now back with a vengeance and dedication to save his family and clan from their unjustified demise.

So, what do you get when you combine the souls of a vengeful heir and a cunning geek?

Chaos, mayhem, disaster and good old ass-kicking.
