There are victories so costly that they leave little cause for celebration.
For years the Borderlands have suffered beneath the rule of corrupt authorities, their people divided by fear, blood and old prejudices. Demons, vampires, magicians and mortals alike have endured a world where power belongs to the few and justice is little more than a memory whispered around dying fires.
Yet every tyranny creates its own resistance.
Among those who stand against the darkness is Maze, a warrior whose name has become legend long before his time. To some he is a hero. To others a criminal. To his enemies he is a threat that must be destroyed at any cost. But legends are rarely built upon truth alone, and behind the reputation lies a man burdened by old wounds, impossible choices and ghosts that refuse to remain buried.
As the foundations of the old world begin to crack and long-hidden betrayals come to light, the fate of the Borderlands hangs in the balance. Friendships will be tested, loyalties broken and blood spilled before the final reckoning arrives.
For victory is never won without sacrifice, and some battles leave scars that no magic can heal.
