Torn from immortality and cast into a fragile mortal shell, a once-feared warlord awakens in a decaying city ruled by crime syndicates and zealots. Though weak, he is not powerless—for he remembers the arcane Paths of Inscription and the art of Engraving refinement. A mysterious whisper calls to him, tempting him with the promise of restoration. But this time, he will not merely reclaim his former might—he will transcend it. From the shadows, through blood and schemes, he will carve his name into the very fabric of reality.
The cycle turns once more. The tyrant shall rise again.
