In the dark and foreboding world of Sanctuary, humanity's fragile existence teeters on the brink as ancient evils resurface. After centuries of uneasy silence, Lilith, the Daughter of Hatred, emerges from exile to spread her corrupt influence across the land, aiming to unite mortals under her twisted vision of salvation. Opposing her rise is a desperate coalition of heroes: a Barbarian seeking redemption for his fallen kin, a Sorcerer delving into forbidden magic, a Necromancer walking the line between life and death, and a Rogue haunted by her bloody past. As the heroes face overwhelming hordes of demonic forces, they must navigate shifting alliances and ancient prophecies while uncovering the secrets of their world’s creation. The line between good and evil blurs, forcing them to confront not only the prime evils but the darkness within themselves. Sanctuary’s survival hangs in the balance, and the final confrontation will test their resolve in the shadow of the Burning Hells.
