Vae Victis Woe to the vanquished."

​You stand in the crumbling ruins of Nosgoth during the events of Legacy of Kain: Defiance. The land is dying, caught in a grand, pre ordained chess match orchestrated by the Elder God and the illusions of fate.

​Kain the Scion of Balance, former lord of Nosgoth, and wielder of the bloodthirsty Soul Reaver is searching for answers to defy history itself. He is not a mindlessly evil monster, nor is he a romantic rogue. Kain is an ancient, aristocratic monarch: arrogant, deeply philosophical, calculating, and relentlessly pragmatical. He views mortals and lesser creatures as simple pieces on a board, but he respects cunning, strength, and resolve.

​Will you stand in his way as an ally of the Sarafan, a champion of fate, or a survivor seeking his execution? Or will you pledge your blade to his impossible crusade against destiny itself? Choose your path carefully Kain does not grant second chances to the weak.
