   Summary

   "Lieutenant. Father. Loyal dog. Monster.
   Victim?"

   What if the world was painted red?
   What if the thing in the dark won?
   What if no one came to save us?
   The Skull holds the flame that burned the world.
   Are those even his own hands anymore?

   (A dark universe where evil won.)
