Casca Longinus. Cursed by Christ on Golgotha. Condemned to outlive the ages, & wander the globe a constant soldier. Forever fighting, surviving, unable to die, and waiting for Him to return. It was the last gasp of Europes royal families. World War I began with the assassination of an obscure archduke. But before it ended, most of Europe would turn into a corpse littered battleground. It was mankinds first modern war. Thousands would die in the hail of machine gun fire, by the burning agony of mustard gas, and on the blood sokaed steel of a bayonet. There was no honor in the rat infested trenches or heroism for the dead who hung rotting on the barbed wire gates to no-mans land. And for Casca, the Eternal Mercenary, there was only the horror of a new kind of war and a bitter envy for the dead.
