will ever be the same.

still pawns. For the adin exist to terraform Mars for human
colonists, not for themselves. Creating a new Earth, they will
destroy their world; killed by their own success. Desperate, adin

and trained to obey any command. But for every Servant created,
Resurrection, Inc.'s profits became everyone's else's loss. Some

heavily armed Enforcers, eager for the kill. Others join the ever
growing cult of Neo-Satanism, seeking heaven in the depths of hell.
Only one man tries to save the world. He is the last hope for the
living. His name is Danal, he's dead - but he remembers.
Everything.
