​

Allysix, The Blood Witch, has been imprisoned in a secret location for so long that many believe her to be only a myth from ages past. But when her cult-like worshipers attack Gethseena, the magical wards being held by the Priests of Ashteri threaten to crumble. With the fall of Gethseena, Nicoldani, a renowned Tovani warrior sets out to find the true location of the witch and stop her before it's too late.

Jak is a seventeen-year-old boy living in an isolated farming village in the mountains of Hlifglynn, but a fateful encounter will change his peaceful life forever. Little does he know that Allysix is imprisoned beneath the very mountains which surround his home. Being lured by her bewitching magic, Jak is enticed into freeing Allysix, thereby unleashing her miasmic evil into the world. Now, Jak is haunted by the witch's insidious gift as he desperately struggles to maintain not only his humanity but also his sanity against the incipient evil and insatiable thirst which she forced upon him.

Upon being freed, Allysix possesses the body of Jak's sweetheart, Brigette, and slaughters their village, leaving only Gin, Jak's seven-year-old sister alive. Faced with the bitter loss of nearly everything he loves, Jak must find Brigette, while protecting Gin. Blinded by his love for Brigette and hindered by his fear of Allysix, Jak embarks on an impossible journey to save Brigette and himself. He finds help from Nicoldani, a stoic Tovani warrior who has been sent by the high priest of Ashteri to destroy the Blood Witch. They are joined by Benjim, a sagely old man whose past is as mysterious as his magic. As evil awakens, they are confronted by terrifying pitfalls and diabolical dark magic throughout their perilous quest.

Jak's own struggle can lead him on a path to his salvation or his doom. Unwilling to admit that Brigette and Allysix are now, one and the same; Jak's choices could jeopardize everything.
