Latest chapter:Ch. 7.4 – “Ghulam” (cont.)
Even in a land so damned and unreal there is wealth to be extracted and debts to be bloodied. It is the 2040s. By way of "gates"/"portals"/"warp tunnels," as disparate as they are unique, certain people and groups from Earth have uncovered a land on a planet wrought by a cataclysm long forgotten by most, where they now inhabit among the evidence of the sins of their forefathers. Some of the Earthlings have made their play to etch a petty kingdom, others liaison with the local powers before those back home find out about this cursed world''''s existence. Still others sell their services to whomever is desperate to hire filibusters with weapons that shoot straight. All seek a unique prize: the crystal ball residue of long dormant horrors, known as "Penkons." Colonel Becker had been compelled to venture into this land years ago. Serendipitous circumstances unite him with his old firm, "Radical-X," and together they spearhead a war host in order to seek a way back home. Through an unforeseen outcome he becomes master to the cursed slave girl "Nori," linked to Becker''''s soul in life and in death. The warlord Sarjenko, the "Wilo Jawi," leads the ragtag host against his brother and other upstarts not just to reunite the "Kaihiwilo" archipelago but also to fulfill an imposed quest by powers as incomprehensible as they are horrifying. ******************** This is a work of grimdark fiction.
