Summary
'Listen. The Sanctuary of the Redeemers
on Shotover Scarp is named after a damned lie for there is no
redemption that goes on there and less sanctuary.' The
Sanctuary of the Redeemers is a desolate place - a place where
hope and joy are not welcome. Most of its occupants were taken
there as young boys, against any will they might have once had.
They cower under the terrifying regime of the Lord Redeemers,
whose cruelty and violence have one singular purpose - to serve
in the name of the Hanged Redeemer.No one knows their way
around all of the Sanctuary, so vast and twisting is its maze
of corridors - corridors filled with the stench of
centuries-old religious fervour.Standing in one of these
corridors is a boy, looking out of a dark window, looking out
at the latest unfortunate arrivals to this hell. He is perhaps
fourteen or fifteen years old - he is not sure, and neither is
anyone else. He has long forgotten his real name, but now they
call him Cale. He doesn't remember anything of his former life.
He doesn't know anything of his future life . . .Meet the Angel
of Death.
