Starblood #3

Summary

Eternity consumed the local sun three galactic turns ago.



In its place is an accretion disk, people cast two shadows, and life can only exist in Circles formed by gigantic light-bearing Trees. Beyond them are icy chill and Darkness, and on the border between them, Shadow, the land of everlasting sunset.



It is the domain of strange creatures and unusual plants that have never seen light, a place teeming with Worms whose only purpose is to devour every living thing, while the few sentients only care about putting you into slave's shackles.



To return to the Earth freehold, I will have to brave the Shadowlands on my own. Well, not quite, but the White Devil who took over my body can do things that make even the locals' blood run cold.



But I think I'm starting to get it. Kill first, or you'll die first. Only dead men can keep secrets. Strike before speaking.



Oh, and there's one thing he keeps telling me over and over.



Only Starblood matters!
