Know, Harmis Detz, that every nation on earth is but appearance and illusion... What can it matter to the masters of Chaos, if a world such as yours were here, or gone, or never here at all?Amongst the quarrelsome towns and bandit kingdoms of the area known as the Border Princes, the Khyprian Empire stands as one of the few bulwarks of civilisation and prosperity. A malignant evil lies within its heart, however, a force driven by revenge and granted awesome power by obscene worship, all as part of its plan to bring the decaying realm of the Plague God to the Border Princes in all its putrefying glory. This is the second in the tales of minstrel Orfeo, stories focusing on the humanity of the Warhammer world besieged from both without and within by the corrupting forces of Chaos.
