He woke up in a dying body.

His throat was cut. His stomach was torn open. His enemies were already deciding how to use his corpse for a blood sacrifice.

But he did not die.

Thrown into a lightless empire where the sun and moon have vanished, he inherits the position of a frontier mayor, a cursed body, and a strange power: every corpse touched by the supernatural can be sacrificed for rewards.

Weapons. Traits. Rituals. Resurrection. Forbidden power.

The more monsters he kills, the more the ancient pages answer. The more he sacrifices, the deeper he steps into the hidden paths of the Extraordinary Sequences.

But his new town is starving. Bandits haunt the roads. Corrupt cults spread beneath the soil. And above them all, rotten gods and false divinities are watching.

He was supposed to be a sacrifice.

Now, he will turn every monster, every cultist, and every dead god into the foundation of his rise.
