Synopsis

In development

In 1291, two Crusader knights, Godfrey and John, survive a shipwreck while transporting Lazarus, an undead revenant believed to be the biblical figure resurrected by Jesus. Teaming up with a group of Arberi mercenaries seeking vengeance, they pursue Lazarus after he devastates local villages and creates a pack of vampires. As the group suffers heavy losses, the pursuit culminates in a final confrontation at a monastery, where faith, vengeance, and the blurred line between miracle and monstrosity collide in darkness.
