For nearly three decades, vampires have waged war against humanity, building their eternal empire as they tear down our own. Now, only a few sparks of light remain in a sea of darkness. Gabriel de Leon, the last silversaint, is imprisoned by the very monsters he vowed to destroy. Forced to tell his story, Gabriel recounts the legendary battles, forbidden love, and the quest for humanity's last hope - the Holy Grail. In a world where daylight has failed, can Gabriel find the strength to end this endless night?
