The Gods of the Upper and the Gods of the Nether have been playing their deadly games for all of eternity and always with humankind stuck in the middle. But this time is different. Tiberius, The Hope of the World, is dead and the great fortress of Athol Myr is under siege. Should it crumble, the fabled portal that resides deep within its interior will fall into the vile hands of the Demon Lords. Without Tiberius to fend them off, all hope is certainly lost and the road directly to the gods will lie wide open. But Athol Myr's army is defeated and all of the prophets are dead - save one. One soldier escaped the slaughter on the plains of Athol Myr, a lone cavalryman known as Griff. As orcs, goblins, and all things evil rampage the land unchecked and crush all who rise against them, what difference can a single person make? Time is running out as Griff learns that there is only one solution to save the world - he must bring Tiberius back from the dead.
