Father Angelo Rossi finds himself bound by the First Word’s enigmatic power. Branded with a mark that pulses with both divine and ominous energy, Angelo is thrust into a fractured reality where his faith, guilt, and humanity are tested like never before.

As visions of a divided world unravel before him, Angelo must grapple with impossible choices: bind humanity to cold, oppressive order or let it burn in chaotic freedom. Guided by a haunting memory of Maria and tormented by Lucifer’s relentless manipulations, Angelo questions whether his defiance serves God—or his own guilt.
