Murdered and betrayed by his own brother in the moment that should have been his victory, Aldyn awakens among the dead in the realm where lost souls seek out their eternity of Promise or Consequence.

Driven by a need for retribution, Aldyn braves the unforgiving Path of Mourning to reclaim his life, his fate and his soul.

To seek his vengeance in the mortal realm, Aldyn must enter a bargain with the sadistic custodian of the path, the Gatekeeper. This monster of unequalled malice offers Aldyn a chance to reclaim his throne. The price, his own eternity. He must pledge to take up the mantle of the shackled Gatekeeper when Aldyn's time is up.

Dare he risk releasing this malevolent creature from its endless duty for a chance to face his traitorous brother once again?

For justice, Aldyn is willing to sacrifice his very soul.
