The Strength of the Few

Hierarchy #2.

The Hierarchy still call me Vis Telimus. They still hail me as Catenicus. They believe they know who I am. They are wrong.

I won the Iudicium — and lost everything. Now, through an ancient device hidden beyond the Labyrinth, I have been fractured across three worlds. Three bodies. Three lives. In Obiteum, Luceum, and Res, different versions of me must survive in isolation, each facing dangers the others cannot.

I must hide and fight, scheme and submit. I must train, trust, deceive. I must kill and heal, fail and prove myself again and again. In each world, I am both feared and cherished — and utterly alone.

Time is running out. I need answers: what was done to me, why it was done, and what it means. Because a Cataclysm is coming, and if what I’ve uncovered is true, I may be the only one who can stop it.
