Reborn without memories, Scorio learns that he is a Great Soul — a legendary defender of the ancient city of Bastion. Within the halls of the Academy, he would enjoy privilege, rediscover unique powers, and one day return to the millennium-old battle against infernal foes. Until he is betrayed. Singled out and sentenced to die for crimes he can't remember, Scorio is hurled to his doom and forgotten. But from even the dimmest spark an inferno may one day rage — and Scorio vows to claw his way back, defeat his elite classmates, and uncover the truth of his forgotten past.

Reborn without memories, Scorio learns that he is a Great Soul — a legendary defender of the ancient city of Bastion. Within the hallowed halls of the Academy, he would enjoy privilege, rediscover unique powers, and one day return to the millennium-old battle against infernal foes. Until he is betrayed. Sentenced to die for crimes he can't remember, Scorio is hurled to his doom and forgotten. Clawing his way back from oblivion, he vows to return to the Academy and defeat his elite classmates — only then will he learn the truth of his forgotten past.

Scorio thought victory was within his grasp, but the Rascor Plains are full of peril and his quest for truth has only just begun. With his friends scattered and his reputation in tatters, Scorio must navigate a web of intrigue stretching from the powerful House Hydra to the mysterious forces that govern the Plains. He will face foes both human and inhuman, and confront the darkest secrets of his world.

Scorio has won his vengeance and his foes lie vanquished. Yet as the powers of hell watch eagerly, Scorio and Naomi spurn those who would recruit them and venture into the untold depths of hell in search of the enigmatic Herdsmen. Amidst landscapes of haunting beauty and terror, they will face terrible fiends, forge friendships with new allies, and encounter societies of Great Souls that put the worst of hell to shame. All will seek to manipulate Scorio — and all will suffer the consequences for trying.

Victory has been purchased at too high a cost. Haunted by the ghosts of friends and lovers fallen, Scorio must rekindle the will to fight, unmask the monsters and manipulators who have deceived the Great Souls for centuries, and finally bring the answers to light. Answers he knows lie hidden in the depths of the legendary Lost Cube.
