“A king is but a name in the sand, impressive though it might be still it is washed away by the tides of time. I am no sandy scrawl but a monolith.” – Vincent The Black

Isoria, a land where mortal man coexists in peace with the immortal Duaémer. For twenty five centuries Vincent the Black has governed the Isorian Empire alongside his brethren and the Emperor, but now an upstart brother seeks to undo what he has spent millennia building. Defying the founding principal that the Empire was built upon, Serpae the Cerulean now sates his deadly addiction by spilling the blood of mortal innocents. Flying in the face of Vincent’s Law.

Into this land comes Dorian Mortise, a noble-turned-convict with a drug problem. His chance meeting with one of Vincent’s immortal descendants ignites a series of events that will not only alter the course of his own destiny but that of the Empire itself.
