WE FIND HEAVEN
Trying to find a way out of the Nameless Forest, Edgar discovers that, to escape, he will have to kill on behalf of those who call this hell on Earth their home. But as the body count rises, he finds himself at the center of an eldritch conspiracy that has been moving towards this murderous moment for a millennium.
Seeking revenge for the death of his loved ones, Atticus, the undying gravedigger, tears across the continent, inspiring a rebellion in his wake. All too soon, he finds himself losing touch with his humanity, and turns to harnessing the Black Hour’s temporal aberrations as a way by which to raise the dead.
Losing faith in his ability to speak for god, Felix, the Holy Child of Penance, questions his purpose in life, and seeks out small acts of kindness to reaffirm it. Plagued by visions of a deformed Vrana, he decides to find a way to save her, only to discover the true reason behind heaven’s silence.
Taking place before, during, and after Vrana’s journey in The Bones of the Earth, The Three Heretics follows the Corrupted humans whose actions have begun to set in motion an Earth-shattering Trauma from which there will be no salvation.
