Synopsis
The revenant has survived countless centuries to pass on an enduring society that reveres the immortal soul. Though mistaken for vampires, revenants have little to do with such folklore. Revenants come into being when a misguided soul takes shelter within a corpse. The body is shocked into life with memories from the multitude of past lives structuring the soul. Over time, a revenant learns to calm the chaos and uncovers lifetimes of knowledge the soul has to offer. Some claim they are near godlike rulers over the ethereal. Some wish to use their second chance at life to repent and protect their soul. Both aim to enforce their beliefs with all their might.
