The War is over.

The demons have won.

Cibola, the citadel of Heaven, has fallen.

On Earth, life goes on. No one knows of the war, of the death, of the fire. No one knows that when you die all paths lead to the same eternity: one of torment, slavery, and eternal pain.

For Indigo, Dave, Gramm, Rico, and Hitomi, death is more dangerous than life. Afraid and naked, they awaken on a forgotten beacon. They set forth seeking answers, revealing a shattered landscape, one crawling with bloodthirsty demons, defeated angels, a Heaven that continues to burn, and a prophecy that offers only the barest sliver of hope.

From the Inside Flap:

Cibola, home of the angels, grand metropolis of Heaven. But now the city is overrun with demons, destroying the beautiful structures, worshipping their cruel gods, and indulging in their desire for human slaves.

Such is the state of Heaven when five humans arrive on a forgotten Beacon. For Indigo, Dave, Hitomi, Rico, and Gramm, death is more dangerous than life. They mistakenly unearth the periscepters, powerful weapons of legend, sought by angels and demons alike. The surviving angels, fueled by an ancient prophecy, begin to regain the hope they thought was forever lost. But the demons have their own plans, and another war in Heaven is brewing, a great storm with the strength of a thousand choirs and the undeniable power to shiver the sky.
