Synopsis

In was Kai-feng, the end of days, the time of chaos.
One by one, the four grisly abominations called the Makkon had come together, marshaling their inhuman armies to reap a bitter harvest of death. Mankind's struggle to turn back the tide of blood was doomed, for soon the hideous Makkon would summon their master, The Dolman. Truly, then, would all hope be lost.
No choice, no chance remained for humanity -- save only one. The arcane magics of the mysterious Scroll of the Ancients would have to be invoked. For only if Ronin could discover the true meaning of the Scroll's secrets would he unlock the power to face the inconceivable horror of The Dolman, in the final battle at the end of time.

From the Back Cover:

THE LAST BURNING PAGE OF HISTORY
DAI-SUN

The triumph of evil draws close. Sorcerous hordes gather beneath the sheer walls of Kamado, last outpost of the human race. The world shudders as the deathless armies of darkness gain ground. In the smoking forests and high, frozen wastelands the bestial legions of The Dolman are marshalled for the final savage onslaught.

On the last stage of his desperate mission Ronin the Bladesman seeks the power of the warrior mages. Only their ancient wisdom and deadly skills can fulfil his destiny and secure salvation for humanity. The Swords are drawn for the Last Battle – between the forces of annihilation and the Sunset Warrior.
