   Summary

   Karlach is dying. After the fiery fight with Gortash, her infernal engine is truly beyond repair, and time has run out. But Zariel is not so quick to abandon the hunt for her rogue asset, and the Hells await the return of their champion. Willingly or unwillingly.

   When hellfire rises, the only way to live might be to die.
