Veil of the Devil’s Hour

They say devils are born, unleashed… and erased at 3 a.m. Vailhom is the only nation that hunts them — hidden from the world, sending trained killers to wipe devils from existence. These devils take many forms. Some wear human faces. Some don’t. Blade is one of Vailhom’s mainland hunters — cold, precise, relentless. He doesn’t fight for glory. He follows orders, ends lives, and walks away. But something is changing. Patterns in the kills. Whispers in the dark. Signs he was trained to ignore. This was supposed to be the job. Now, it feels like the beginning of something far worse. Disclaimer: This is a work of dark fantasy. All characters, devils, and events are fictional.
