After the catastrophe of the Call of Agon, Ifferon and his companions find themselves in the unenviable situation of witnessing, and partaking in, the death of another god - this time, Corrias, ruler of the Overworld. With Corrias locked inside the corpse of a boy named Théos, he suffers a fate worse than the bonds of the Beast Agon. Yet, hope is rekindled when the company find a way to restore the boy, and possibly the god, back to life. The road to rebirth has many pitfalls, and there are some who consider such meddling with the afterlife a grave risk.

The first of Agon’s chains has broken. It is only a matter of time before he is free and the world is engulfed in chaos and death. There are few left to stop him. Most of the gods can only sit and watch in horror from their prison in the heavens, but the resurrection of the father-god, Corrias, gives the people of Iraldas a sliver of hope. A fighting chance.

Armed with a connection to the estranged gods in the Overworld, and a scroll bearing Telm's powerful dying words, he is tasked with ensuring the god's vital legacy: that Agon remain vanquished.
