The world is on the verge of an apocalypse. A mystery forged in the flames of war. A chance to start over. For John Sutton, one of the few people in the game, only one of these three things is important. Retired after a brutal ten-year war, he wants only a quiet, pastoral life, trying to stop the steady increase of his Fate Points before they have reached the 100 mark, which means the beginning of the end. In gratitude for his service, he was given a small farm on the outskirts of the empire, but no matter how far he travels, there is no escaping the ravages of war on the world. Bandits, suspicious townspeople, a mysterious pair of siblings, a mystery , hiding in the mountains - all this threatens John's peace. It will take all his strength not to burn everything to the ground.
