Embers and Echoes

Still bleeding from his defeat, Mortis awakens in the care of Arthur Pontiac, the reclusive doctor who once owed his life to Mortis’ vanished grandfather. As his wounds begin to heal, Arthur becomes more than a healer—offering Mortis harsh lessons in survival, combat, and the true nature of the devils. With renewed strength and purpose, Mortis sets out once more, following the scorched trail left behind by Protos. His pursuit leads him to a village engulfed in flames—where fate brings him face to face with the monster he failed to kill.
