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.

The Revenant King of Rubrum

<p>Marcius was taken out of his musing as he heard the familiar sound of his contracted demonic beast returning to the camp. The thumps of the Alpha Lycanis's paw beating against the ground were easy to recognize, even if he was feeling the connection to the beast getting closer again.</p>

<p>Marcius got up from his position where he lay on the ground, using the wooden log as a pillow. It was just in time for the heir of the Aemilia clan to see the form of the wolf familiar coming into view. From behind the trees of the forest, Cloud emerged as a victorious conqueror. From the link of their bond, Marcius could feel the satisfaction coming off from the wolf in waves.</p>
