The peaceful village of Tleth is set upon by evil, demonic creatures, and no one knows why. Almost the entire town is massacred, but one man survives. Young Layth watches his father die. He watches the evil creatures destroy his home and try to destroy him, too. Near death, he flees, with no idea that the band of demonic brothers was actually sent to find him ... In his severely injured condition, Layth is visited by the gods, who bestow upon him a divine power. His new abilities make him the perfect weapon-for good or evil. It's up to Layth to decide on which side he will fight. When he is apprehended by the very men who ruined his village, their abuses twist his mind. Darkness is awakened inside the young man, and his sense of moral right is irrevocably disturbed. Layth escapes, but he will never be the same. Now, a war rages in the world of Lionet. Layth holds the key to the survival of all that is good and right, but will his own darkness threaten to block out the light? With the help of a few peaceable allies, Layth will struggle to use his powers for good. He alone can conquer the demons ... but can he conquer his own immoral impulses?
