Tenebrous Rasque is the last hero, cursed to live forever, and the son of the devil.

Most say he is a liar.

In a strange world, full of strange souls, the stories of Tenebrous precede him wherever he goes. When drunk he exaggerates the tales, when sober he does what he must for money. He has killed many, but most deserved it. Tenebrous lingers reluctantly in this existence, yearning to be with his lost love. While searching, he is coerced into an impossible task. He must cross the vast northern desert, to rescue an aged general's granddaughter from the zealous followers of a man that claims to have returned from the dead. Matthew, the undead god, preaches his knowledge of the afterlife.

​​​​​​​Those that hear his words are driven mad and compelled to spread their master's chaotic message. Matthew needs Tenebrous' most sacred possessions, his father's silver pistols, but more than this, he wants to destroy the last hero and condemn him forever...

...to a forgotten unmarked grave.
