What happens when inspired by Warhammer 40k, Trench Crusade and the Lovecraftian mythos to write a war and military focused story.... You get this; a story in which multiple major factions are neck-and-neck at war and the impact of said war. Expect a dark and grim tone from this war-filled novel and purely lore. Characters are consistently mentioned but nothing too in depth about any of them is explored because this is more of a fictional journal than it is a novel. Expect countless losses and blood spilled without second thought. Of course, that is not all to expect. Forsee a chronological story rich in lore and character interactions told as if from the eyes of a historian. As previously stated the story has a very grim overall theme but also interesting lore. I should of course mention that "christianity" exist in this story, and of course plays a pivotal role in the progress and one the the constantly reoccurring themes in one of the main factions. But this is not meant in any disrespectful manner especially since I am fully aware certain things are completely incorrect or against christian faith yet I have still written as such. That is because this is an alternate christian faith and please understand that the only deities in this story are Lovecraftian in nature, like the eldritch gods Nyarlathothep or Yog-Sothoth created by sir Lovecraft himself. Therefore the "god" in this story is in no way the abrahamic god, but something purely conceived in my fantasies which of course I will share with you. Additionally I should add that real world themes, names, places or even events will be mentioned - consistently, and even used, applied or told differently to fit in context of the story so please understand that as well. Furthermore I would like you to understand that large scale conflicts are a nigh constant in this story. If death, blood, gore and in depth explanations thereof are unsettling to you, I urge you not to read this story's contents That's all, bye!!!
