    • The city of Paradys was a place of decadence and decay, of luxury and lasciviousness and, after the revolution, a graveyard peopled by the insane and the dead... and by those who preyed on both. For the land here was bound by a timeless, soul-chilling magic, and its power had cast a spell over all who had ever lived here.
