当和平世界的居民被嗜血的尤美人征服，他们的存在就不可逆转地改变了。被奴役后，亚西利安人发现自己被残暴的主人所摆布。

绝望之下，以塞尔弗为首的亚希安人放弃了对暴力的束缚，开始报复俘获他们的人。但在保护自己的生命时，他们已经危及到了社会的根基。对侵略者的每一次打击都是对亚希安人人性的打击。一旦杀戮开始，就没有回头路了。

When the inhabitants of a peaceful world are conquered by the bloodthirsty yumens, their existence is irrevocably altered. Forced into servitude, the Athsheans find themselves at the mercy of their brutal masters.

Desperation causes the Athsheans, led by Selver, to retaliate against their captors, abandoning their strictures against violence. But in defending their lives, they have endangered the very foundations of their society. For every blow against the invaders is a blow to the humanity of the Athsheans. And once the killing starts, there is no turning back.
