Dreadlords: Volume 1: Awakenings

Set in the small country of Koskern on the southern side of Europe in the fourteenth century, Satan has drawn up monsters from other realms to attack the citizens of Koskern. He has trapped the people within its lands. No one can leave, and no one can enter. He has made Koskern His testing ground to exercise His power. So far, everything has gone according to plan.

Michael and Gabriel, two affected by this ongoing feud, are separated at a young age. Their mother is killed and Michael is kidnapped in one tragic accident. Michael, raised among the thieves that kidnapped him, unable to recall his childhood, finds himself in trouble and gets taken in by the Dreadlords. Gabriel, on the other hand, is raised in the safety of the Sanctuary, the home of the Nephilim, surrounded by family but driven by grief. He continues to push himself to new heights, to prove himself capable of finding his brother and bringing him home.

Though with a strict father afraid to lose another son, his resources are limited, but unbeknownst to him, he is blessed by the great Archangel. It is his destiny to face the Dreadlords in battle and, in turn, find his brother, who may become a Dreadlord himself.
