by Chris Wraight


  I will never serve in your Crusade while there are witches among us.

  For too long, he had been used by all sides – Nikaea had been and gone, and the promises made for it had all been hollow. The void now seethed with witchery, more virulent than ever, and he could feel its tendrils grasping for him.

  He looked down at the etched floor, at the wards and the symbols and the runes. He would have to learn more. He would have to master all the paths of ruin. He would, as perhaps he had known for a long time now, have to become the very thing that he had always hated.

  ‘So be it,’ he growled, retreating back to the centre of the arcane circle. ‘It starts here.’
