A young man will do anything to save his ailing mother, but when he accidentally stumbled on the power of long-dead gods, his entire world is thrown into turmoil. With monsters at his back and murderous soldiers ahead, he must fight to save himself and the things he holds dear. The world of Lycoris is dying. After the gods perished centuries ago the world has slowly been slipping into darkness and ruin.
In their place the king has created his Holy Knights, those who execute anyone caught using magic in the name of the gods. Under their rule all the kingdom is slowly starving to death, their populations dwindling across the years. A young man, Nox Vitalis, makes a living by selling scrap from the ancient ruins to the soldiers for their armor and weapons. However, his mother is deathly ill and running out of medicine.
With no other way to make money and the nearby ruins running dry, Nox delves into an ancient city deep underground, hoping to find a payday. Instead he finds an artifact of the gods and it becomes permanently affixed to his skin. Unable to get rid of it and pursued by the undead guardians of the city, Nox must find his way out and back to his home. Can Nox make it back to his family in time or will the horrors of the ancient world rend him from the mortal coil?
