In my past life, I heeded the Blood I rescued people, slaying monsters from the inner plane. For my trouble the Inquisition condemned me for blood lust and burned me at the stake. And in my current life my family is dishonored in the eyes of the emperor, there's a bounty on my head, and I'm the subject of a divine dispute. Well then, no better time than now to surprise them all. Give me but a drop of blood—and the hunter will become the prey. I am Mikhail Komarin. The Blood of my bloodline guards my back! And I still heed the Code.

My enemy has finally shown his face. War is inevitable. Only one will survive. Blood for blood, a life for a life. When even time works against me, when oaths mean nothing, my allies will become creatures from the darkest of nightmares. Who said I'm allowed to die? What about my reckoning with the gods?
