Athos BlackThorne is the lord of the castle but this may be his last day. Caught between the accusations of the Church, the claims of the Empire and the resistance of the indigenous peoples of the BlackForest, he will fall into a web of conspiracy, treason and deceit that seeks to replace him as the ruling power in the region. His last resort is turning to a cursed artifact that saved his family several times in the past - but at what cost? With this power in hand, Athos must face a series of tragical events, navigating his choices, allies and foes to figure out how to survive what may be the last dawn of the BlackThorne Keep.
