To question the Light is heresy. To stray from the path is death.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDale, a humble farm boy, dreams of finding purpose beyond the worn fields of his childhood. When the Church selects him for priesthood, he believes it a blessing-until dark truths begin to surface. Whispers of vanished initiates, relics of ancient technology mistaken for miracles, and the horrifying revelation of what the Church truly serves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFleeing into the wild ruins of a once-great world, Dale finds refuge among the Remnants-those mutated by the very chaos the Church seeks to erase. But Dale is different. Unmarked by mutation yet touched by power, he holds within him a force neither he nor the Church fully understands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs the lines between faith and deception blur, Dale must confront not only the truth of the world's past, but the truth of himself. To defy the Flame is to declare war on the only order left in a broken world.
