Callum was once the sharpest blade in the Northern United Kingdom, the sergeant of the "Ghost Company", a cold-blooded and efficient soul-breaking gunner. He personally compressed the despair of countless lives into the soul crystal that drives the war.
However, a "desperate order" to sacrifice civilians alive forced him to draw his sword and point at his motherland. Now, burdened with the lives of hundreds of fugitives, he has become a traitor hunted by both the United Kingdom and the horrific Black Blood resistance.
In a wilderness ruled by ash and deformed monsters, Callum and his team must go darker and more cunning than anyone else to preserve their remaining supplies. No glory, no redemption. This is just a desperate march from one purgatory to another.
