Synopsis

When Salamander Dak'ir wakes up on an unfamiliar Nocturne, he must adjust quickly to his new surroundings to avoid being captured and tortured by xenos. His journey leads him to a slave camp, where he must find a way to fight an enemy he does not understand. The only way he can triumph is to harness the phenomenal powers within himself, at the risk of them utterly consuming him.
