Iron, the sole survivor of the legendary Shadow Knights, lives in self-imposed exile, haunted by a failure that cost him everything. When a spreading, malevolent darkness called the Eternal Night threatens to extinguish all life, he is reluctantly drawn back into the fight by a determined loremaster carrying a map to a mythical gateway.

Pursued by a ghost from his past and monstrous creatures born from his own shadow, Iron must embark on a perilous journey not only across a dying land, but into the heart of his own inner conflict. To save the world, he must stop fighting the darkness within him and instead master it, becoming the very thing he has always feared in order to protect the light. It is a grim fantasy story of redemption, sacrifice, and the difficult truth that one's greatest strength often lies in what one fears
