In a world where magic is commonplace, rogue abominations of nature roam the lands, and deities exist, a lone boy named Raphael seeks to exact vengeance against the very murderers that tore his life apart, leaving him the only hapless survivor of their onslaught. He joins the Hunters, a group of ancient warriors sworn to protect the lands of Agartha, with nothing but revenge on his mind. But soon, he finds himself becoming involved in something bigger than he can handle. Beasts, the Ancient Blood, the Deathless…The world of Agartha is growing old and weary, and he’s seeing its pains surface one by one. And they aren’t pleasant. Eventually, he finds that the question is no longer ‘how’ he is going to exact his revenge, or ‘when’. It's whether or not there's a point in him doing so.
