The Raven Thief

Born of the wastelands, Spheris Arnadel, a young skilled thief, finds himself subject to a twist of fate when he steals a powerful relic and becomes a Bearer — humans gifted with powers from the Gods. As a punishment for his theft, he is cast into an otherworldly realm alongside other Bearers, where he faces off against monstrous beasts and powerful enemies. Yet, in his determination to return to the Continent and save his dying mother, Spheris is hell-bent on surviving the abyssal world. Even if it means giving his body to the Dark God whose powers he had stolen... even if it means losing all of his humanity.

"Like I said; Active Demons are right nutters, the worst sort of pain in the arse you'll ever deal with, right on your cheeks. They can't stick to a host for long, so they keep leaping in and out of them just to stay alive.

"Now, what you're gonna do is use this device, called a Prison Sphere. When you manage to pry a Demon out of its host and there's no new one for it to jump into, you jab the tip of the Prison Sphere. It'll unleash a pullin' energy that'll suck the Demon right in and keep it trapped inside."

The members of Jared Quinterbell's Brigade each looked at the metal ancient looking ball in their hands, glowing with an arcane energy.

Spheris attempted to speak, but Jared interjected right away.

"Now I know what you're thinking. What's stopping the Demon from possessing you as well?"

Spheris frowned. That was exactly what he was thinking.
