Ancient beings transport demon-fighter Kernel to the center of the universe. There he learns the (pre-)history of the Demonata and discovers that the Disciples' mysterious new enemy is actually Death itself. Extended expository dialogue injects some degree of fresh life into the series, albeit clumsily, providing welcome relief from the gratuitously detailed, nightmare-inducing fight scenes.

I know it's ridiculous. Lights can't whisper. But I swear I heard a voice calling to me. It sounded like static to begin with, but then it came into focus, a single word repeated over and over. Softly, slyly, seductively, insistently.

"Come..."


The Disciples are being manipulated by beings older than time. Only Kernel Fleck knows that something is wrong. But he is in the grip of a creature who cares nothing for the fate of humanity. Voices are calling to him from the darkness and he's powerless to resist.

Kernel has already been to hell and back. Now he's about to go further.
