The Legend of Black Eyes

Planet Hera, shunned by the gods, suffers from constant wars.
Bloodshed and conflict rule the four continents.
Bandits lurk in the shadows, ready to ambush the weak and defenceless.
Sinister beasts roam the desolate lands and forgotten forests.
Zedd Darkstar has lost everything, his family, his beloved, and even his own identity.
He cheated death only to have legendary mages and powerful deities chase after him.
They threw him in Nowhere, a place neither here nor there.
Nothing existed in the abyss. Even time had no effect in Nowhere.
Just as Zedd thought he’d spend an eternity surrounded by the everlasting darkness, a magnificent creature appeared before him.
“What are you?” he had asked.
“I am you divine blessing, and your worst nightmare.”
“What do you want from me?”
“Would you like to cheat death one more time?”
