Most have no idea what truly lurks in the shadowy world that exists alongside the light of day. Where the righteous falter and emboldened demons swagger unopposed.

One ducal demon knows and has arisen from his brimstone prison to oppose that from whence he was born.
Cail, rebellious son of The Pit and his unlikely cadre of circumstantial allies, quietly plot their next move. Yet idleness breeds complacency which leads to restlessness. And what happens when a restive demon duke is baited into a bet with Faust himself?
