Power behind the undead army is growing stronger. A friend is falling into darkness. Strange allies band together to stop it. Can this odd group of companions save the living from extinction? The army of the dead has begun to rally from their recent defeat, slaughtering the nomads of the out-regions. Reza and company have been preoccupied with mending their wounds from their last encounter with the arisen lord, but the task has drawn them thin, and to their wits end. Met with indolence from the region’s leaders, they are left to make strange connections and allies to help in defending their home state from impending doom. The dead are within the Southern Sands borders, and few have prepared for the imminent tides of war.

Once a thriving city—now a foul necropolis, ruled over by the arisen dead. The fallen city of Brigganden now poses a threat to the neighboring lands, its demonic warlord slaughtering all who venture near. Reza, a member of an elite code of knights, leads the only troop willing to stand against the hellish army—risking not only her life to the vile arisen, but the lives of her only friends. As they struggle to survive the rising tide of evil, fulfilling their mission becomes the least of their priorities. The dead know of their presence—and this evil hungers for more than just flesh and blood.
