According to the codex of the Crusader Order, an institution created by the Holy Alliance of Abrun in order to defeat the so-called forces of evil, working together with demons is punishable by death. But people are still people, even in a world where a person can get tangible rewards for carrying forth the will of the gods. That makes it even worse, actually: just as somebody with personal power can obtain political power, so can somebody with political power obtain personal power. Thanks to a weird quest from his father''''s past, a greedy baron and a heap of intentionally misinterpreted evidence, Amarion Pozen gets a front row seat to the execution of what was left of his family and tickets to a one-year long tour of the baron''''s prison.
