After a raging, intense battle with a large contingent of the Black
Knight's minions, Edward and the remaining members of his group
take shelter in an abandoned inn to lick their wounds. Formulating
a plan to chase after the demonic creatures in order to eradicate
the threat of a reoccurrence, Brian and Katie head off, leaving
their werewolf companion to keep watch over their leader as he
attempts to heal. Following the trail of the railroad tracks, they
discover more than they were bargaining for; the retreating demons
spring an ambush on the unsuspecting duo as they ascend toward the
pinnacle of the mountain. Surviving the surprise attack and, for
the time being, eliminating the immediate threat, Brian and Katie
continue to climb. As they reach the termination point of the
railroad tracks, they find themselves staring at the gaping
entrance to a cave. Determination fueling them, they step through
the opening, making sure there aren't more of the tiny demons
regrouping inside. As they enter, a blood red veil of light falls
over their vision. The expansive chamber is adorned with row upon
row of enormous, wooden crosses, some of which have nude prisoners
shackled to them. Could this be the place Julie had referred to as
Cemetery Hill? If so, what were the odds of her still being alive?
Would Katie find her best friend in this chamber of horror, or was
she too late?
As Edward and his makeshift group of adventurers descend the stairs
leading underground from the Outpost, they find a strange object as
well as Katie's friend, Julie. They watch in horror as Melissa
disappears through this new portal, and decide to follow her. When
they get to the other side, they find themselves in a
post-apocalyptic world that resembles Earth. Will Edward be able to
lead the group back to Desolace to continue their battle with the
Black Knight? Or will they be stuck in this new Hell, fighting just
to stay alive?
Katie finds that the town of Haven is not what it seems as she
continues her journey across the strange world of Desolace,
searching for her friend, Julie. During her travels Katie makes new
friends, but also makes a horrifying discovery. The creatures that
she thought to exist only in myths and legends, while she grew up
on Earth, are very real on this world The only bright spot is a
message that Katie receives from Julie, but the message is filled
with a sense of urgency. Will she find Julie in time? Or will the
darkness of this world consume Julie first, leaving only a useless
husk of flesh behind?
Upon their return from the post-apocalyptic realm of future Earth,
Edward and the remaining members of his group destroy the portal to
keep a never-ending flood of zombies from wreaking havoc on
Desolace. They are reunited with their ghostly friend, Amber, but
have no weapons or supplies and are forced to return to the town of
Loknar to seek help. After enlisting the aid of the town guard, and
their new friend, Jasper, Edward leads the group toward his home
town, the city of Elysia. When they arrive, Edward is saddened to
see his once great city has been decimated. The lone surviving
elder speaks to Edward of an incursion by the forces of darkness,
which seems bent on completely destroying the largest city upon
Desolace. Sending Edward and his faithful followers on a mission to
the south, they soon discover a small town, seemingly forgotten and
uninhabited for a very long time. Was it the work of the Black
Knight and his minions which has left the city streets littered
with corpses? If so, will they be able to stop his madness before
it consumes Elysia and everything Edward holds dear to his heart?
