Italy, 1492. In a world where gods and demons live among men wearing human faces, a young soldier loses the woman he loves to a god, and accepts a demon’s offer to take her back.
Some pacts are signed in blood. This one was signed with half a soul.
An original saga by David Gomez Valerio · since 2011
Born of the same Father and divided since the beginning, they live among men in human form: nobles, priests and landowners with the power of an ancient beast.
Gods and demons have no soul. They carry a Prism: the essence that holds their human form, their power and the beast that protects them.
Demons may not touch the world of men directly. But a man who accepts their power can, and every soul he takes darkens his own.
