Synopsis
Having failed to stop Morgen's transformation and abandoned the handful of rules he lived by, the mercenary Bedeckt escapes the Afterdeath determined to undo the damage. Reunited with the vain swordsman Wichtig and the murderous thief Stehlen, he finds new enemies waiting: reflections and doppelgangers of people he once trusted, scheming against him, while Morgen's own obsession with purity and order threatens to remake the world by force.
