There were two souls.

One was assiduous with an unyielding will. One was effortlessly cunning with wisdom beyond many.

And now, they are one. The universe will pray.

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.

But wait. He was not alone.

Along with Marcius, came the soul of Joseph Redwoods, who had read all the future events of Marcius's world from the pages of a novel.

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.

Marcius's expression morphed into a frown as he noticed the tower shaking. He looked around as dust and small debris started to fall from the ceiling.

Then, he returned his observation to the leader of the Order of Purple Sun. The pale man had a mocking smile as he looked down from his frankly massive throne.

"Our order is not going to win this war. There is no chance for us, not anymore. Most of the circumstances were due to my useless decisions, I must admit. But what's done is done," The order master spoke in a grave tone.

"And it will not matter anymore after today, because both my order and your clan are going to go down together with my final act of defiance toward you, your clan, that blasted duke and the bastards from the church!"

Alaster reached out with his hand as he gestured toward the ceiling.
