A world that has survived the apocalypse—and is rushing headlong toward a new one. A sacred war in which thousands die. A non-god, the formidable Mog-Farau, striving to be reborn. And the all-powerful Kellhus, whose origin is unknown, whose title is the Prince of the Void—the one who shapes people’s destinies, the great warrior of bloody times. A grand chess game begins!
The time has come to unite the peoples of the Three Seas. The time has come for the Sacred War against the heathen Fanim. In the great city of Momenne shrajya Thousand Temples gathers under its banners everyone who, only yesterday, didn’t think about unification. The goal of the Sacred War is Shaime. The sacred city is in the hands of the heathens. Both the poor and the rich will gain glory on the battlefield for the glory of God.
But few truly know that this war has far more aims. Magic schools, the Emperor, Shrajya, the terrible Non-God, and the offspring of his legendary enemy Anasurimbor—all of them have their own personal goals, but they are bound together by the bonds of the Sacred War on the eve of the Second Armageddon. They are all enemies and companions.
