SPFBO8

The race of men has failed. The undead and the necromancers of Mortua reign supreme. Nurias was once a holy warrior. Now, he wanders across the barren wasteland doing what he has to in order to survive... killing for whoever will pay. When a chance happening reveals a way to kill the supposed immortal necromancers, Nurias and others spring to act but nothing goes as planned. Nurias is cursed with the soul of the very thing he tried to destroy... and now, everyone is hunting him. Across the Sunkenlands, other heroes and heroines arise, as Nurias wanders into the most dangerous region of the wastelands, others seek him out not to kill him, but to unite together for a single chance to save their broken race. But what can any of them do when their gods and hope are dead? Become what they were always meant to be. Our Dead Gods is set in the Dwemhar Realms in a time before any currently published book. See a world only mentioned in the lore and legends up until now... the Sunkenlands await!
