In the heart of Scera, the Sunset Empire stands as humanity's most powerful stronghold, ruled by the immortal Undying Emperor from his secretive golden throne. Surrounded by darkness and chaos, the empire thrives under his iron grip and the prowess of the Imperial Army. Within the Empire's pulsing core, Sunset Isle, an unlikely team is forged from destiny's fire: Talia Lorraine, noble-born and fiercely loyal; Elbaf Elbainsen, the half-orc guardian from the slums; Arcus D'ari, the wandering ranger from icy realms; and Darko Branislav, the enigmatic elven wizard. Thrust into the shadows as the Empire's secretive Black Hand, they face execution if they falter under the command of a ruthless zealot. Bound by necessity, they navigate a web of treachery and heresy, battling not just external threats but the very ideals they once held sacred. As a shadowy prophet stirs unrest, they're haunted by a chilling question: Can the empire they're sworn to protect truly be justified?
