Cain Taran has fought this war for as long as he can remember. Four hundred years of war may seem like hell, but to Cain, it's personal. After his wife is killed before his eyes, he crosses the world of Tarsha to unite the broken countries against the immortal tyrant, Abaddon. But Cain soon learns that this is no war at all. Abaddon has battled with humanity for centuries to eradicate their race and gathers his armies for a final push to end the resistance. Cain must now make a choice between the revenge that has driven him this far or the people he swore to protect. The fate of Tarsha falls on Cain and the choices he makes, for he is somehow entwined in the cause of this war, and only he may end it.
